45 Leftover Ham Recipe Ideas

03/28/2016 1 Comment

45 Leftover Ham Recipe IdeasHow many of you make a delicious ham for your holiday meals? I have to admit that I’ve never cooked a large ham until this year, it was my first time buying a spiral slice ham. I have no idea why I haven’t purchased one before. I mean it’s not like it’s a giant turkey that needs love and attention before and during it’s cooking process. Turkey’s scare me, I’m fearful that I’ll mess it up so bad it will look like the turkey that implodes on National Lampoons Christmas Vacation. Ham though, that’s a different story…it’s already pre-cooked and sliced most times so it’s almost like I can’t mess it up. That’s a huge win. If you’re like me you have quite a bit of it leftover from the holiday dinners you cooked. I’ve gathered 45 Leftover Ham Recipe Ideas to help you use up every last bite of that delicious ham! Enjoy.
