Sadly we didn’t have ham for Easter. Although I am tempted to buy one today because I LOVE leftover ham dishes! This week I am giving you 5 different ways to use leftover ham. Now I would not expect that anyone would use this as their meals all week…. your family might revolt! But you can use a few of them!
MONDAY – Ham and Cheese Rolls from The Country Cook – These are a lot like the Ham and Cheese sliders that I make. But I love the raspberry preserves that she adds, it makes them like a Monte Cristo sandwich. Just slice your leftover ham thin and these will be AWESOME!
TUESDAY – Split Pea Soup from SkinnyTaste – This is a really good Weight Watchers recipe {only 3 points} and calls for a ham hock. If you do not have one, just cut up and add a bunch of diced ham! This can be done on the stove or do it in a crock pot!
WEDNESDAY – Ham Salad from Simply Recipes – This recipe is a good one because it also calls for chopped hard boiled eggs… you have some of those right?! If you have not had ham salad, do not be afraid! It is a lot like chicken, or egg salad. My kids eat it on crackers or break without complaint!
THURSDAY – Slow Cooker Ham and Potato Scallop – The combo of ham and potatoes on this one is a winner! It is also easy with the cheddar soup, I am not a fan of condensed cheddar soup so I “make” my own. I will add it to the recipe below.
FRIDAY – Baked Omelets from Whats Cooking? – Just as easy as it sounds. A lot like breakfast casserole, but without the bread. This is a high protein easy dinner to make!

Do you think the recipe would still taste good if you used fat free shredded cheader soup? Also, would you recommend putting in some broccoli so there is a veggie in it?
Yes try it!
