Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375&# 194;°F (190ðC).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with the milk until smooth and creamy.
  3. Stir in the thawed and drained frozen mixed vegetables, potato puffs, cubed cooked ham, 3/4 cup of the cubed American cheese, and half of the French fried onions.
  4. Mix all ingredients thoroughly until well combined.
  5. Pour the mixture into a 1 1/2 quart casserole dish, spreading it evenly.
  6. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 35 minutes, or until heated through.
  7. Remove the foil and sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of American cheese and the rest of the French fried onions over the top.
  8. Return to the oven, uncovered, and bake for an additional 3 minutes, or until the onions are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  9. Let cool slightly before serving.
