cups boiling water

1/2

2

tablespoons butter, melted

Heat oven to 375°F. Spray 1 1/2-quart glass baking dish with cooking spray.

Make potatoes as directed on box for stove-top directions, reserving butter for topping. Stir in cream cheese until smooth. Stir in ham and peas. Pour into baking dish. In medium bowl, mix butter and crushed croutons. Sprinkle over potatoes.
