  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Coat a 9 x 9” baking pan with cooking spray.
  2. In a microwave safe bowl, add onions, red bell peppers and butter. Cook in microwave on high for about 3-4 minutes until soft. Set in refrigerator to chill for 10 minutes.
  3. In a large bowl, mix together the cooled onion mixture, ham, milk, eggs, egg whites, garlic powder and pepper. Blend well. Stir in cornbread mix and only stir until blended. The batter will be a bit bumpy. Spread cornbread batter into prepared pan.
  4. Using a rubber spatula, spread yogurt over the top of the casserole. It won’t cover completely.
  5. Sprinkle cheese evenly over top of yogurt.
  6. Bake for 45 minutes so the entire casserole will be cooked through. It will look very dark golden brown.
  7. Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting into 6 slices. This casserole may be made ahead of time, refrigerated and reheated. It also freezes great!
  8. Makes 6 servings (each serving, 1 slice)

    Shopping Tips
    Most supermarkets sell Jiffy corn muffin mix in the baking aisle. If you can’t find it use another brand that is about 8.5 ounces.

    Trader Joe’s sells (8 oz) packages of Black Forest ham. It’s uncured and contains ‘no nitrates.’ Most health food markets sell this type of ham too.


    Cut Down Weight Watchers POINTS PLUS Tip
    If you’re looking to make this dish lower in points, make the serving size 8 instead of 6. It’s still very satisfying. You can serve it with some fresh fruit on the side.
    Weight Watchers (old points) 5
 (if casserole makes 8 servings)
    Weight Watchers POINTS PLUS 6 (if casserole makes 8 servings)
