Leftover ham ideas

I've got mine in the freezer at least part of it and will make ham and beans with corn bread.

Can't you tell my husband is a Southern boy??

I was going to use some to make ham salad sandwiches, and I was going to use the bone and the rest of the meat for Pea Soup. Yummy!!

I wish I had some leftover

We went to dh's grandmother's for dinner. If I did have some left I would just eat another ham dinner (LOVE ham!) and then make some ham salad. It's been a long time since I had any of that.

Made them eat leftovers last night...freezing the rest...one batch for soup beans and cornbread too!
and one batch for a BIG pot of potato and ham soup....(our favorite!)

Made spanish rice with chunks of ham and leftover kielbasa in it. Been doing sandwiches for lunch.

Any suggestions for meals to make with all this leftover Easter Ham? We had quite a bunch over so I had to make two large hams, and now have lots left over. Can you freeze it? Any recipes? Thanks.

I freeze ham all the time.

I slice some into ham steaks, others into thin sandwich slices and dice some up for casseroles and to put in potato soup.

Ideas for using it:
Ham, cheese and potato soup
Ham, brocolli, rice casserole
Ham Salad for sandwiches
Ham, vegi, noodle soup
Ham and bean soup
Ham and potato salad
Scalloped potatoes and ham
Ham balls
Green salad with ham and cheese chunks in it
Ham, cheese and pasta salad
Macaroni and cheese with ham
Fried ham and eggs
Ham and cheese quiche
Oriental coleslaw with diced ham

I used some tonight-Bowtie pasta, ham, spinach, olive oil, garlic and parmesian cheese. Yummy and quick. The rest will be sandwiches and omlettes.

I freeze leftover ham all the time too. Great list Debbie!

Nice list Debbie.

We're having split pea soup with ham for dinner toight.
I like to package mine (& freeze) into 8 oz. pkgs of cubes to use in casseroles & egg dishes.

I was more excited about making ham salad than I was about having the original ham!

Here's my recipe:

Amy's Ham & Cheese Salad Sandwich Spread

2 cups chopped cooked ham
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup mayonnaise (or more, to taste)
1 tablespoon prepared mustard
bread or crackers for serving

Combine all ingredients in a food processor and pulse until blended. You may need to stir a little more by hand to make sure that the mayo and mustard are blended in thoroughly.
Serve on bread or crackers.

I wish I could find my recipe, but I'll just give you the general idea.

Cooked spaghetti. White sauce with garlic & parmesan & mozerella. Maybe some peppers & black olives & broccoli.

Mix it all together with cubed ham & serve hot.....ooooooo or cold, too.

I *made* this once from a recipe, but I can't find it. It was good.
