I cooked a ham for my family, and now I need to find a way to use the leftovers. Any ideas?

    The garbage disposal or feed it to your dog. Ham is nasty and is full of worms!

    Dice some of it and along with pineapple, add it to a bruschetta pizza! I'd freeze the rest if you're tired of it.

    dice it all up. throw it into everything this week:

    1. eggs and potatoes, spinach, onions, whatever you've got - scramble or omelet, or just sunnyside up; throw in some salsa w/ ham.

    2. split pea soup w/ ham

    3. potato and leek soup w/ ham

    4. pasta with chopped tomatoes, spinach, asparagus, onions, juice of 2 lemons w/ ham

    5. jar of pasta sauce, why not?

    I no longer eat meat, but my family still loves this recipe. It's from my old blog: http://gingerb85.blogspot.com/2008/02/new-recipe.html Easy and yummy.

    I made a killer Black Eyed Pea, Ham and Collard Greens soup not too long ago... Highly recommended! I made a hybrid of a soup I found on Kaylyn's Kitchen and a wickedly unhealthy soup -- so damn good :bigsmile: I'm actually going to make it again on Sunday if I can remember how!
