Tired of making ham sandwiches the day after Easter (or any holiday with ham)? Whenever I have used leftover ham, I tend to just make a quick sandwich with some cheese. We never end up eating all of our leftovers because we don’t want to eat another ham sandwich. So I went searching for recipes that let me transform our leftover ham into another delicious dish. The best part is that some of these can be made and frozen so that you can enjoy them when you’re not all “hammed out.”
