Any great recipes for leftover ham?

<p>Thanks for all the great suggestions. I didn’t make the casserole last night, my husband surprised me with dinner out, but it is ready to go for tonight. I am actually looking forward to trying it. I put the rest of the ham in the freezer for another day and am looking for a recipe for a dish our Amish friends used to make. It was with green beans and ham and had a peppery flavor, wonderful for a cold Pennsylvania evening. I will share if I find it.</p>

<p>Who has left over ham?!?!</p>

<p>Try making Senate Bean Soup. I like it with the mashed potatoes included. Make everyone vote after serving if they like the soup or not!</p>

<p>Jambalaya…I add shrimp at the end.</p>

<p>Potato Soup</p>

<p>1 bag hash browns (ore ida works fine)
1/2 onion finely chopped
1 can cream of chicken
3 cans chicken broth
chopped up ham and/or bacon
salt/pepper</p>

<p>Cook in crock pot on low for 4 hours. Add 1 block of softened cream cheese at the end, stir in, leave for one additional half hour.</p>

<p>Leftover soup tends to be very thick…we add milk and heat up.</p>

<p>My youngest daughter loves </p>

<p>Ham and Cheese Supper Bread (from an old Betty Crocker’s Dinner for Two Cookbook)</p>

<p>1 cup buttermilk baking mix
1/2 cup chopped cooked ham
2 T instant minced onion (<em>We like onion so we just chop an onion and throw it in the mix rather than use instant.</em>)
1 egg
1/3 cup milk
1 T salad oil
1/4 t prepared mustard
1 cup shreded Cheddar cheese (about 4 oz.)
1 T sesame seed (<em>Truthfully we don’t bother.</em>)</p>

<p>Heat oven to 350. Grease 1 quart casserole. Mix baking mix, ham, onion, egg, milk, oil, mustard and 2/3 cup of the cheese. Spread in casserole. Sprinkle remaining cheese and the sesame seed on top. Bake until top is golden brown, 30-35 minutes. Serve warm. (<em>Yummy with butter, but not necessary.</em>)</p>

<p><em>So - we always double the recipe. It’s good with a mixed fruit or green salad - or side dishes of vegetables. It’s good served with soup. It can be eaten by itself for breakfast or a snack. Reheats well.</em></p>

<p><em>We chop and freeze one cup portions of ham and send about 4-5 packed in an ice chest back with my daughter. (She drives back.) It’s a favorite not only for her now but her roommate and assorted others. Can’t be easier.</em></p>

<p>ignatius, That sounds delicious. I did have to google both “salad oil” (veg oil) and “prepared mustard” (regular, not powdered mustard), but now that I have those figured out I plan to try it.</p>

<p>thanks!</p>
