Notes

We like to use frozen riced cauliflower and fresh broccoli florets in this recipe, but frozen or fresh work for both. We use the microwave to cook the veggies, but you can also steam on the stove.

You may use leftover ham or buy the packages of pre-diced ham at the store for this casserole.
