DH bought an almost 10 lb. ham last week. I served it for Sunday dinner, then made ham and potato casserole on Monday. There’s still a lot left–too much yet for pea soup. What else can I do with the leftovers?
 
put it in eggs,
on a sandwich,
on a pizza,
or if all else fails, in a ziplock and chuck it in the freezer for another day.🙂
 
Pasta e Fasoi
Made this with my leftover Christmas Ham. Where it calls for pork fatback, just use the fatty portion at the top of the ham- works just as well.
 
FREEZE IT! Save it for SOUPS!

I made a potato soup a few weeks back using some frozen leftover ham and it was GLORIOUS!
 
You sound like me. First I do the ham dinner, then the scalloped ham and potato cassarole, then the pea soup! 🙂

We also do ham sandwiches on homemade bread, fried ham with pancakes for dinner or saturday morning breakfast, or I freeze some for another round of scalloped potato and ham cassarole (since it’s my husband’s favorite) a couple months later.

Scrambled eggs with ham, peppers, and onions is good for dinner, too. I like the pizza suggestion, especially if you include pineapple!

Ham Salad

Make a bunch of ham and cheese breakfast burritos and freeze them for easy breakfast on the go.
 
Last week was **GREEN EGGS AND HAM **day at school for Dr Seuss’ birthday:D

Amen to that!! It does not work for Fridays right now but my DD just begged me to buy a little bitty ham chunk, just for Potato soup! YUMMM!
 
May I suggest my :)favorite casserole recipe?

Though it may seem to some here, that I :pnever cook anything else, it really is very good, and has the advantage of being online.
I have made any number of variations on this with ham…In fact, my emergency shelf always has a small (refrigeration not required) canned ham waiting for me to make a ham cassrole just because it is so easy & tasty as well.

ps some of us should start a “What’s For Dinner” group…
 
Best thing to cook with a leftover ham bone is white beans and rice. Serve it up with a little mayo and some fried catfish and it is my favorite dish. 👍
