Scalloped Potatoes & Ham {Gluten & Dairy Free}

My mom and I really struggle with gluten and dairy sensitivities. This Christmas, we had left over ham and smoked turkey. So, we made scalloped potatoes and ham gluten and dairy free. It tasted great, so I wanted to share our recipe!

The Secret to a Non-dairy Creamy Sauce

Although it is fun to get crafty in the kitchen and find healthy ways to make your recipes taste the same as the original, it can be frustrating. Changing every meal to dairy and gluten free is hard sometimes.

My mom and I found this Sam’s Choice Organic Vegan Protein Broth at the store this past year and it has really changed our cooking game!

Dairy Free Gluten Free Creamy Sauce

With this broth, we don’t have any troubles making casseroles creamy without using any form of dairy! What? I know, right?!

But seriously, it is awesome for this recipe, chicken pot pie, soups, etc.

The Roux

A roux is the creamy sauce that has a form of flour to thicken it.

For this recipe, we used butter (or ghee), cornstarch, bouillon cubes and the sautéed onion/mushroom mixture. This ghee has pink salt added, so the taste is like that of salted butter! It is really a great butter alternative.

The roux is cooked until the flour or cornstarch is cooked out and has a chance to thicken the sauce.

The Ham

After many failed attempts at baking a delicious ham, we discovered a Butt Ham is the best ham out there. It is more tender and better for incorporating into dishes than other cuts of ham.

We cubed the pre-cooked ham and set it aside until the roux had completely come together.

Combine & Cook

At this point the sauce, ham and diced potatoes can be stirred and combined for baking! We are almost there folks!!
