21 Recipes to Make with Leftover Ham

Unsure what to make with leftover ham? From ham and bean soup to ham fried rice, these irresistible leftover ham recipes are the perfect way to put those smoky leftovers to good use.

Easy Leftover Ham Recipes

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 leftover ham ideas for repurposing that ham at our disposal.

From classic split pea soup made in the pressure cooker, to gussied up grilled cheese, these round-two leftover ham recipes are so good, they’ll give your holiday ham dinner a run for its money .

So let’s carve in, shall we?
