I'm a home health nurse and got this recipe from one of my elderly clients, who had used it for years. Now, it's one of my family's favorites. It will never curdle, thanks to the secret ingredient of powdered nondairy creamer. You can serve this homey favorite for just 85¢ per serving. —Kathleen Johnson, Lake City, South Dakota

Great recipe! Use 2 cans of chicken broth in place of water to make the dish more savory.

I used bacon instead of ham, and fresh onion instead of minced, and it was delicious. Also, not enough sauce, will have to double next time. Overall a very good recipe.

This recipe was way too watery and bland for my families taste. I have made other recipes that curdled so I was excited to try this but was dissapointed at the result.

This is a great recipe. I used a bag of Simply Potatoes sliced to make it even easier. I also cut the dried minced onion amount in half. Perfect!

This was so delicious! I made this as our main course dinner last night....I used raw yellow onion, I doubled the amount of Ham and then built my casserole in layers to ensure even distribution of the ham chunks and then I used 1.5 the amount of sauce called for and it turned out PERFECT! If you are using left over bone-in ham to make this I would caution against using any extra salt though because the ham is already SO salty you probably will find that it is seasoned enough without adding the extra tsp called for - Personal opinion only though! Thanks for Sharing this recipe!

This was superb and one of the easiest recipes in the world. No worry as to having too soupy a sauce with this one.

The flavor was excellent. My family agreed that it was dry. I will definitely make this again just double the sauce.

This recipt is good. Potatoes took longer to cook. Maybe pre-cook them next time.

I will make this recipe again because my picky son really enjoyed it. But, my husband thought it was slightly bland. I am thinking I will add some real onion or maybe some red pepper flakes for a bit more flavor. Maybe garlic.

Would not classify as the best scalloped potato recipe but still very good. I will make it again.

My whole family loved this one! I had some ham to use up and was especially glad to be able to use up our powdered coffee creamer! I didn't really like the way it tasted in my coffee, but it was great with the potatoes! As for the creamer not being so healthy, as with most products, you can find healthier versions. Ours was the Whole Foods 365 brand creamer. It doesn't have any hydrogenated oils in it, nor does it contain any artificial colors, flavors or preservatives. While I wouldn't classify it as a "health" food, as an occasional food, it is just fine.

I would not make this recipe because the non dairy creamer is such a bad product to use. Very bad for anyone's health!!
