From ham and bean soup to ham fried rice, these 17 irresistible leftover ham recipes are the perfect way to put those smoky Easter leftovers to good use.
If you’re lucky enough to find yourself with leftover ham this Easter (this is one of my favorite recipes), that means spring pastas, soups, fried rice, and more are just a bite away. Of course it takes a whole lot of restraint not to just channel our inner caveman and snack on the remaining ham straight off the bone — the porky goodness is just way too tempting.
Baked hams are a celebratory food. Since we tend to make them for holidays and special occasions, they’re typically not something we have on a regular basis, so when we do, we know there’s a wealth of yummy ideas for repurposing that ham are at our disposal.
From classic split pea soup made in the pressure cooker, to gussied up grilled cheese, these round-two leftover ideas are so good, they’ll give your holiday ham dinner a run for its money .
So let’s carve in, shall we?

March 31, 2018 at 7:28 amI cut lawns to save $50 to purchase a brand new Hallicrafters S-200 “Legionnaire AM/SW radio. I enjoyed chasing DX stations and collecting QSL cards, but one day, while fiddling with the band switch, I discovered I could hear ham radio transmissions on 75 meters! I was fascinated and began spending more time listening to hams rather than international broadcasters. Eventually, I got my ham radio license and eventually, I got a job at ARRL Headquarters writing and editing ham radio articles. After two years, I left the League for more money working for Modems”R”Us (also known as General DataComm), which began my 36-year career as a tech writer. Meanwhile, the League asked me to continue writing for them on a freelance basis, which began my 36-year career as a freelancer, writing more than 1,200 articles for QST and the ARRL website, not to mention a half dozen books on packet radio. So I would say, “Yes, my first shortwave radio changed my world, not to mention my life! order custom essay
