What can I do with leftover ham, besides ham sandwiches?

I freeze sliced ham all the time, so long as its cooked it should be fine

omelette's with green onions, cheese and tomatoes,

add to fettuccine Alfredo

add to some potatoes

add to some mac & cheese

add to some rice and sprinkle with cheese

My kids absolutely devoured a pan of scalloped potatoes I made using the leftovers from our Christmas ham. Very easy to make.

I can't remember the exact ingredient quantities off the top of my head, but I know it was very simple. Ingredients for the sauce included just milk, butter, a bit of flour, and some black pepper. Slice a few potatoes thin and layer in a greased baking pan. Pour in some of the sauce and scatter about small chunks of the ham. Add another layer of potatoes, then more sauce. I topped with some grated parmesan cheese. Bake it covered with foil for one hour, then uncover for another 30 minutes. I think the oven was at 350. Tastes great!

ham hash. it's excellent. my mom used to make it when i was a kid, and now i make it with leftover Christmas ham.

peel and boil an idaho potato for each person plus one additional. cut into 1 or 2 inch cubes and boil until fork-tender.

cut up the ham (just use how much you think you will eat; we usually tend to eat the rest of the ham, which is about a pound- give or take) into bite-sized chunks

in a big skillet, put about 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, and saute half of an onion- cut into "strips"- and a taplespoon of minced garlic until onion is tender, but not brown.

add tender potato pieces and ham chunks. salt and pepper to taste. cover with a lid and cook until ham is hot, stirring (it's not liquid, but you should get the idea!) occasionally. potatoes should get softer, and look kind of "mushy."

this is my favorite left-over meal. it is also a good filler-upper (is that a word?) because it has the potatoes AND ham, which gives you the perfect serving of your carbs, protien, and starches, and the olive oil, which is good for your blood pressure (i think...!)

Enjoy!

you and me both. This is what I did ...

1. sliced and froze a lot

2. made a couple casseroles (allrecipes.com) and also a mac & cheese w/ ham (allrecipes.com)

Then I bought crackers and good cheese for snacks and also some good bread that I've made grilled cheese with ham dipped in tomato soup for a change.

I'm actually getting ready to ask how I can get the maple out of the ham. I've washed some slices which works well but I'm wondering what will counteract as far as a seasoning! Good luck!

My boyfriend made some ham and bean soup... Then he also made some ham stir fry. He just used some frozen veggies and teriyaki sauce, cooked it all in a wok, and put it over rice. Mmm, I'm eating left over stir fry right now.

Yes - Ham freezes very well. I just froze a whole bunch from our Christmas ham also!!

sure you can freeze it, or you can chop it, add the bone and make spilt pea soup.. or ham and cheese casserole.

1 lb cooked rigatoni

1 lb chopped ham

6 eggs, scrambled

1/2 c. heavy cream

1 tsp grated nutmeg

1/2 lb. grated swiss or gruyere cheese

1/4 c. parmesan cheese

add the pasta and ham to a buttered casserole dish, toss lightly to incorporate, scramble the eggs, cream, and swiss cheese together, add nutmeg and pour over pasta. top with paremesan cheese.

bake at 350 for 35-45 minutes until lightly golden on top and eggs are cooked through.

you can make split pea and ham soup,black eye peas and ham, bean and ham soup, ham quiche, ham and cheese melt on a bagel, chop it up and put in a salad, make scallop or augratin potatoes and add ham, add ham to an omelette, or eggs, you can freeze it, as ham is already cured and cooked when you buy it, you just have to heat it up.... make homefries and add them in....
