This Ham, Corn and Cheese Impossible Pie is a great family meal.
I’m all for easy meals to feed my family and they really don’t get much easier than this Ham, Corn and Cheese Impossible Pie. It’s based on my Egg and Bacon Impossible Pie recipe which is one of ALL three of my boys favourites meals, so you can imagine it’s on a regular rotation in our house!!
I came up with this Ham, Corn and Cheese version after I went to make our regular recipe and decided to use the copious amount of leftover ham from school lunches that week (after my six year old suddenly declared he didn’t like ham anymore….) and I then thought why not add the corn to the recipe instead of serving it on the side?
The resulting meal was a big hit with everyone, so much so, that the boys asked for more (which NEVER happens!!) and ended up eating half of the pie in one sitting – woohoo! As well as being a winner with the kids, this recipe is also incredibly easy to make and you can have it ready on the table within one hour from start to finish – enjoy!
