Desperately seeking leftover ham recipe

Paisleyskye said:

Hi,

I made a ham last night and have lots of leftovers. I have been searching
the net all day for a good leftover ham recipe but I can't find anything
appealing - i.e. I don't want to cook it as an omlet, the casseroles don't
really appeal to me because I don't like them, and soup just isn't the thing
when it's this hot out.

Anybody have a great idea for leftover ham? I'd really appreciate it.

Take Care,

Ham salad for sandwiches - on rustic bread would be great.

Add some to Eggs Benedict.

Make a Ham & Broccoli Quiche...or two - I buy those Pet Foods deep-dish
frozen pie crusts and make two - one to freeze (quiche freezes
beautifully) and one to eat now.

Make Ham Croquettes (one of my favorites).

Make Scalloped Potatoes with Ham.

1. Ham salad--grind or chop ham, add chopped pickle, finely chopped
onion, and mayonnaise.

2. Macaroni and cheese with minced ham added

3. Saute shredded potatoes (fresh or frozen), chopped oinion and
green or red pepper and cubed ham. Add cheese (optional) and let
it melt before serving.

4. Make a chef's salad with salad greens, cubes of ham, cheese, tomato,
olives, fingers of bell pepper, and maybe wedges of hardboiled aggs.
Serve a variety of dressing on the side (vinaigrette, ranch, blue
cheese, or your family's favorite)

Ham sandwiches, or even better, ham and pickle salad sandwiches.

Diced ham is great in Quiche.

Sliced cold ham is pretty good.

Sandwiches!
Salads!
Omelets...

There are a TON of things you can do with ham!

My personal favorite is beans, but you said you did not want to do
soup...

Cheers!

Curried ham with pineapple over rice

Ham with barbecue sauce, mustard greens, and cornbread

Rice-paper rolls with ham, shredded carrots, and bean sprouts, with an
apricot-guava dipping sauce

Ham tacos with grilled-pineapple salsa

Ham with plum salsa (or some kind of chutney), spaghetti squash, and
broccoli or bok choy

Ham with tostones (twice-fried plantains), black beans, and orange-jicama
relish

I sometimes mix ham cubes with cooked lima beans and a good white sauce
with mustard in it. Put it in a casserole with buttered crumbs on top
and bake in moderate oven til bubbly.

Ham roll-ups...in a tortilla wrap put a thin slice of ham , thin slice of
cheese and what ever else you'd like...roll it up and eat it cold or
bake/microwave it.

I'd go the soup route.I mean other than as cold cuts, sandwiches, salad or
reheated as in ham and eggs...you're left with wrapping it in
something...You could wrap it in a chicken breast or as a filling for a
trout. Ham sandwich spread...in a food processor add ham, mayo, celery,
mustard, red bell pepper and maybe nuts, relish or curry...then have at it.

Ham Fried Rice is great, if you have leftover rice.

Scramble a couple/three eggs in vegetable oil, chop up, then saute some
onion, garlic (if you want), and diced ham. Remove from pot. Add a
little more vegetable oil, then the cold, separated rice (fresh rice
gets too gummy). Toss until heated through, season with salt, white
pepper, dash of brown sugar, soy sauce and/or oyster sauce, then add
back the other stuff. Add fresh bean sprouts and green onions, if you
have it. You can add just about any meat/veggie combo.

What about a white or alfredo type sauce with bite size pieces of ham
and peas served over pasta? Quiche using ham is pretty good too. If
it's warm out, I would be tempted to slice thinly and make into
sandwiches or dice for a salad topping.

I'd make beans and rice with ham, or a soup.

Ham and Chinese cabbage go well together in a stir fry. Cut ham into
thin bite-sized pieces. Cut Napa cabbage into 2" pieces. Heat peanut
oil in heavy pan or wok. When quite hot, add two smashed garlic cloves
and a few thin slices of fresh ginger. Stir for a few seconds and add
the cabbage. Salt to taste (optional). Cook, stirring frequently, for
about two minutes, then add the ham. Continue stirfrying just until
ham is hot. Finish with a dollop of hoisin sauce. Serve with rice.

SWEET MUSTARD-GLAZED HAM AND PORK LOAF (Chris T.)

6 to 8 servings

1 lb firm and smoky baked ham, trimmed of any tough outer rind

1-1/2 lbs ground pork

1 c. finely crushed saltine crackers (about 30)

1 c. milk

1 tsp freshly ground pepper

Sweet Mustard Glaze (recipe follows; start this as you're doing the ham
loaf)

In a food processor, finely chop the ham. In a large bowl, stir together the
ham and pork. Add the cracker crumbs, milk and pepper; mix thoroughly.
Transfer to a large shallow baking dish and form into a flat loaf.

Bake in preheated 350° oven for 30 minutes. Spread 1/3 of the Sweet Mustard
Glaze over the loaf and bake for 15 minutes. Spread half the remaining glaze
over the loaf and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the loaf is glazed and
brown and a thermometer inserted in the center registers at least 165°.

Let cool slightly, then transfer the loaf to a serving platter. Let stand
for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Serves 6 - 8

SWEET MUSTARD GLAZE (makes about 1 c):

1 c (packed) light brown sugar

1/3 c cider vinegar

1/3 c water

1/4 c Dijon-style mustard

In a small, heavy, nonreactive saucepan, whisk together the brown sugar,
vinegar, mustard and water over moderate heat. Bring to a boil, reduce the
heat to low and simmer, stirring frequently, for 20 minutes. Let cool to
room temperature.

Drink Suggestion: The homespun mustard and pork flavors and the saltiness of
the ham find their natural complement in the sweet but bitter notes of a
rich ale, such as Anchor Steam Liberty Ale or a traditional English ale,
such as Bass.

Meat Substitution: I use turkey ham and ground turkey in this recipe, and it's
just as good and lower fat.

BAKED REUBEN STRATA

6 slices rye bread (preferably dill)

2 Tbsp prepared Russian or Thousand Island dressing

6 oz thinly sliced turkey, ham, or corned beef

1 1/2 c. rinsed and well-drained sauerkraut

2 dill pickles, chopped

1/2 tsp caraway seeds

2 c. shredded Swiss cheese

3 eggs

1 1/2 c. milk

1 Tbsp prepared yellow mustard

In a buttered 7- x 11-in. pan, place 3 bread slices, cutting to fit. Spread
1 Tbsp dressing on bread. Layer with half of meat, sauerkraut, pickles,
caraway seeds, and cheese. Repeat layers. Beat together eggs, milk, and
mustard and pour over layers. Let stand while oven is heating or refrigerate
4 - 5 hours. Bake at 350°F for 40 minutes or until light golden and set in
center. Serves 6

ASPARAGUS CHEESE STRATA (rec.food.cooking 11/4/96 - James Harvey)

Source: Conifer Ridge Farm, Clearville, Pennsylvania

This layered asparagus, cheese, and ham bake is a good choice to serve
buffet-style because you can assemble it completely the day before, then
cover and refrigerate it overnight. It cuts so easily, you can serve it in
nice neat squares.

Ingredients

1 pound fresh asparagus, steamed, or 2 packages (9 oz. each) frozen
asparagus

pieces

6 slices whole wheat bread (cracked wheat is better)

Butter or margarine

2-1/4 cups (9 oz.) shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup coarsely chopped cooked ham

5 eggs

2 tablespoons instant minced onion

3/4 teaspoon each dry mustard and Worchestershire

1/4 teaspoon each salt and garlic powder (or more to taste)

Dash of cayenne

1-3/4 cups milk

Remove tough ends from fresh asparagus and cut diagonally into 1-inch
pieces. Steam just until tender. Lift from pan with slotted spoon, drain,
and set aside. (If using frozen asparagus, cook as directed on package;
drain and set aside.)

Trim crusts from bread. Butter slices lightly and fit into a lightly
buttered 7 by 11-inch baking dish. Sprinkle 1-1/2 cups of the cheese over
bread slices. Top with ham and asparagus pieces in even layers.

In a bowl, stir together eggs, onion, mustard, Worchestershire, salt, garlic
powder, and cayenne. Add milk and beat together until mixture is well
blended. Pour evenly over layered ingredients. Cover and refrigerate for at
least 8 hours or overnight

Bake, uncovered, in a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes; then top with the
remaining 3/4 cup cheese. Bake for an additional 10 minutes or until center
of strata appears firm when dish is gently shaken. Let stand for 5 minutes
before cutting into squares.

Serves 6 to 8

Ger out the:
black eyed peas

Ham salad
Chef's Salad
Pineapple Glazed Ham Steaks
Ham and Eggs with Red eye gravy

Red Eye Gravy
According to legend and not necessarily facts, Andrew Jackson (1767-1845), 7th
President of the United States, who was an American General at the time, called
his cook over to tell him what to prepare. The cook had been drinking
"moonshine" corn whiskey the night before and his eyes were as red as fire.
General Jackson told the cook to bring him some country ham with gravy as red as
his eyes. Some men nearby heard the general and from then on, ham gravy became
"Red Eye Gravy."

You could wrap it in a chicken breast

I'm thinking chicken breasts stuffed with thinly sliced (almost shaved) ham
and swiss... breaded and then baked or pan-fried. What the heck is that
called? My mind is gone.
