I love skillet dinners! They are so quick & easy to make. All the ones that I have tried taste great, too!

 

I was looking for a way to use leftover Easter ham so I came up with this recipe.

 

This recipe, like all my skillet dinner recipes, is made in a 12″ cast iron skillet.

 

 

 

Alfredo Ham & Pasta Skillet Dinner Recipe

 

1 pound bite size pasta (my family prefers farfalle – bow tie pasta)

3 cups water

2 cups heavy cream

3 cups diced ham

1 12 oz bag frozen peas (no need to defrost first)

1/2 cup parmesan cheese

1/2 teaspoon pepper

1 teaspoon garlic powder

salt & pepper to taste

4 oz cream cheese

 

Add everything to the skillet except the cream cheese.

 

 

Cover and bring to a boil. Stir and turn down to a simmer. Cook for 11-12 minutes until pasta is done.

 

 

Stir in cream cheese.

 

 

Serve with additional parmesan, if desired. I personally think you can’t have too much parmesan cheese!

 

 

I have served this Alfredo Ham & Pasta Skillet Dinner to my family twice now. Everyone loves it! Well, some of them don’t like the peas. lol You can leave the peas out if you prefer!
