    Ham & Cheese Stuffed Biscuits
    You will need:
    1 can flakey layers biscuits
    8 ounces of leftover ham
    4 eggs
    1 cup of shredded sharp cheddar cheese
    Scramble and cook your eggs, set aside to cool. Finely chop leftover ham, mix with eggs and cheese (save some cheese for topping) pull apart each biscuit into a makeshift pocket or clamshell. Stuff with 1/3 cup of ham and cheese filling, stretch biscuit around filling and press to seal, shape back into a biscuit round. Brush with an egg wash and top with a sprinkle of reserved cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for 18 to 20 minutes. To freeze, let cool completely then wrap each in parchment or wax paper, place in a freezer bag and store frozen for 3 to 4 months.
    Monte Cristo Sandwich
    2 slices of sandwich bread
    Leftover ham slices
    Dijon mustard & mayo
    Sliced cheese of choice (I used swiss)
    Eggs
    Milk
    Assemble sandwich by spreading mayo and mustard on each slice of bread. Top with sliced cheese and ham. Mix 1 egg with approximately 1/4 cup of milk per sandwich. Place assembled sandwich in egg mixture and flip to coat on both sides.
    Fry on medium low heat in a buttered skillet for approximately 3 minutes per side.
    Socials:
    Socials
    Ham & Potato soup
    1 onion
    8 ounces of leftover ham
    2 cans of potatoes (drained)
    1 cup of instant potato flakes (any flavor of choice)
    2 1/2 cups of low sodium chicken broth
    2 1/2 cups of milk
    Dice onion and sauté with butter/oil until softened. Add in leftover ham, broth, and milk. Let come to simmer then stir in drained canned potatoes and instant mashed potato flakes. Continue to cook and stir just until heated through and thickened
    Cheesy Ham and Broccoli Pasta Bake
    1 onion
    8 ounces of leftover ham
    8 ounces of sharp cheddar
    1 bag of broccoli florets
    1 packet of country gravy mix
    1 & 1/2 cups of low sodium chicken broth
    1 cup of milk
    12 ounces of egg noodles
    Ritz crackers or fried onions for topping
    Dice onion, shred cheese, thaw and chop broccoli (to quick thaw broccoli microwave for 3 minutes, or refrigerate overnight)
    Sautee onion in butter/oil until softened. Add in leftover ham, chopped broccoli, broth, milk, and gravy powder. Let thicken slightly then add in half of your cheese. Mix until all of the cheese is fully melted then stir in the remainder of the cheese. Set this mixture aside.
    Boil egg noodles for 5 minutes. Drain, mix with prepared cheese sauce, pour into a baking dish and top with crushed ritz, chips, or fried onions.
    Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes and enjoy!
    Hope this video gave you some new ideas!

    Grand slam home run!! I end up scaling back your recipes because I live alone, but you haven’t posted one recipe that I haven’t loved. What I tend to do for ham is watch when my grocery store puts their larger ham steaks on sale, and I buy it a few and throw them in my freezer. I can pretty much use that for any of recipe on your channel. It’s not a casserole. It’s a pasta bake!!! I am so stealing that line. Wishing everyone a wonderful holiday season. ❤️🇨🇦🎄🤶

    My favorite thing to do with left over ham is ham salad for sandwiches. I just put the ham, mayo, sweet pickle relish and onions in a food processor and grind it up) Fun fact, Monte Cristos are usually served with whipped cream and strawberry jam. I grew up in the frozen north east and soup was wonderful during the winter. My mom would make potato soup adding in some bay leaves, and split pea. I love split pea soup with sweet corn bread . My daughter got a free ham from her work. So these recipes will be great for the leftovers. 🥰🎄❄☃🍴🎁💝✝Merry Christmas Rebecca!🥰🎄❄☃🍴🎁💝✝

    Something we grew up on is a take of the potato soup. We just called it potato, peas, & ham. All you do is cook your potatos, ham, & peas. Make a bechamel sauce enough to cover more or less however you like say a gravy, salt, pepper. So easy And so so filling. In fact 40 years later we still request it when we get together. I absolutely love your channel and how creative you get!

    That egg wash hint is brilliant! Looked like you touched the rack when you put the pasta dish in - hope your fingers didn't get burned. :) Also hope you have a lovely holiday off of the Tubez. I've been inspired by some of your videos for this year's holiday meal (it's scaled down as I'm not traveling this year). I'm planning to do the ham rosettes for my Xmas eve dinner and then Xmas day I'm going to roast a chicken (I think? I have both pesto and salsa to use up in the fridge, so I'm not 100% sure where I'm going with this). Hopefully it'll turn out okay because my kids are bringing a friend. Actually, now that I've written it out, maybe I should do those rosettes for Xmas day - they did look nice and fancy. Guess I'd better go google how much ham one person will eat...

    Thanks for always bringing your calm presence and creativity! I'll humbly suggest a video idea: soft and smooth foods for people who have trouble chewing! I recently had dental surgery. Even some soft things like pasta can be uncomfortable to eat. It has made me even more aware of how frustrating it must be for someone who has to eat like this all the time! I'm recovering, but maybe it'd be helpful for others in the future. Just an idea! I'm sure it would be very challenging.
    I hope your holidays are wonderful. ❄️

    The potato soup looks delicious and so much faster than using fresh potatoes.
    One shortcut I have done is used the diced frozen potatoes (southern style hash browns/ home fries/whatever the label calls them lol) so I wouldn't have to peel and dice potatoes, but your way is even faster lol

I'm a vegetarian with a meat-lover brother that I care for full time and it's hard to think up meat recipes when I have zero interest in them and can't taste as I'm cooking. My brother and husband both love ham but I never think of anything other than just serving it with some potatoes so this is genius! I'm definitely going to try these out, thank you for such great ideas.

  • @thaisstone5192
    @thaisstone5192 7 месяцев назад +3

    (130) You should try making ham salad. Finely minced ham, mayo or Miracle Whip (whichever is your thing) pickle relish to taste (the mustard-based ones are a good cheat) and that's about it. Butter (or margarine) two slices of bread, slather on the ham then add pretty much whatever else you like (lettuce, tomato, cheese etc.).

    I always make ham salad but I use dill pickle relish instead of sweet, it goes really well with the smokey ham flavor. We put it on some good Italian bread rolls with a slice of cheese, lettuce & thin sliced tomato with a side of kettle chips & a pickle spear. One of my favorite lunches! Super easy to make and a nice quick lunch for the days after Christmas where everyone is burnt out 😂 even my kids love it.
    I’ll definitely be trying some of these recipes too since we always have tons of leftover ham after the holidays.

All your ideas help give me ideas of what to make. I shop sales for the most part. But usually I make the same things over and over again. I'm really picky when it comes to food. So seeing things to make that's not in my mind is great. You letting us know we can use something or not and it'll still work helps alot! I won't eat mayo, mustard, tartar sauce, sour cream, any salad dressings, or even ranch just to say a few. So you letting us know we can still make something without those things and it still being good, helps so much!! I hope you have a Merry Christmas, and a safe New Year!!

    I also want to thank you for all you do on here it's amazing how much care you put into all the meals. some I've seen on here doesn't put much effort into it because of I think it's things from dollar tree and that's a shame . Some really look down on someone having to get groceries at dollar tree or anything for that matter. In this economy they are more having trouble being able to not be hungry anywhere I can find food cheap I love it .

    Wow- that potato soup recipe is genius. I use the diced and canned potatoes in my black bean soup, but never thought about making just plain potato soup with them! Also, you can dice up leftover ham and use it to add to things like canned split pea soup - with needs a bit more in it. Or just add the diced pieces to a can of butter beans, hominy or - as I'm going to do for New Years - black eye peas (a traditional NY day dinner from my childhood).

    Buying the larger mayonnaise jar is cheaper and more cost effective than buying the smaller squeeze bottle. Handy to have on hand for tuna fish sandwiches, macaroni and potatoes salad. Also great for outer coating for baked boneless, skinless chicken breasts, same as you would use a honey mustard or dijon mustard. Just fyi.😊

      In many videos she does mention how buying in bulk is cheaper but not always manageable for people on a tight budget. In one video she did reference a USA website advising on weekly and monthly budget. It was eye opening, on there it mentions the price difference between buying for 1,2,3 or 10 people and the percentage of savings when buying in bulk 😊

I can get on sale the large Hellmann's mayo for $2.99(including $1 off ecoupon) vs the tiny(may not be Hellmann's mayo at $tree for $1.25). Just making an observation but also from experience being widowed when our son was 4 years old. I am still that person on a tight budget, 25 years later and on a fixed income. I shop the store sales, ecoupons, flyer coupons, use coupons from manufacturers(so many send coupons by mail). We no longer have a $tree in our town, $general, yes and so many things $tree carries they do too and for $1. We even use mayo for grilled cheese, cause if I have it, but no butter(which is super expensive), hey it works!

    My mom used to put those sliced canned potatoes in a pan on top of the stove and heat it with a little finely chopped onion, butter, parsley, salt and pepper...."Parsley Potatoes"....delicious. Love and miss you Mom❤.

    Rebecca, my mom and I made the pasta bake tonight with some leftover Christmas ham. I cannot have gluten, so we used gluten free rotini instead of egg noodles and gluten free condensed cream of mushroom soup in place of the country gravy packet. Wow, this was really amazing! We both loved it and almost couldn't stop eating it! Thank you for your videos, especially this one, to help us creatively use the tons of ham leftovers!!

    Thank you for all ur videos throughout the year.
    I got Hawaiian rolls this year, and I had everyone take Hawaiian rolls and ham as they left. That way, they could grab and go with those throughout the week. That meant I didn't have any leftovers this year. It was nice.

    after holidays when I was a kid ham salad sandwiches and the ham bone was used to make pea soup. Okay as a kid
    I didn't like either lol but we had a big family so it fed many of us for the week. Thank you for sharing!
