what are you doing with the leftover ham?
- I picked up the smallest Food Saver bags and I'll be cubing and freezing smaller portions, just enough for a couple omelets, ham salad or to add to a small batch of pea soup.
- You can freeze the whole bone to use later, or make the stock now and freeze it in portions for when you're ready to make soup or beans. You can make the stock with onions/carrots/celery like you would chicken, or keep it basic with just the bone and water adding flavoring when you cook with it.
- There are many recipes on-line for creamy pasta and ham, scalloped potatoes and ham, loaded baked potatoes, soups, quiche, and last but not least, fried rice!
- Appetizers for parties this week: ham and cheese cubes on a toothpick with a sweet mustard dipping sauce, stuffed into (seeded) sweet or hot pickled cherry peppers, ham cubes to dip into a cheese fondue, ham and cheese cheeseball.
- Does anyone make Ham Cakes, if so, would you share your recipe?
What's your favorite thing to make with the leftovers?
