Wondering what to do with leftover ham? Worry not, here are 100+ Tasty Thanksgiving Leftover Ham Recipes to tickle your taste buds.
Most years, we spend Thanksgiving with my hubby’s family. The gatherings are fairly large and there is always turkey and ham served. Those two are a staple for holiday gatherings and something we usually eat once or twice a year at Thanksgiving or Christmas. Unfortunately, due to the dreaded virus, we’re still being advised to not have mixed household gatherings in Southern California, so we’re staying home to celebrate.
Since it’s just the six of us in our home, I made ham early this year because I didn’t want to be drowning in leftover turkey AND ham after Thanksgiving. In fact, as I am writing this post, my fridge has an entire container of leftover ham…eek! But thanks to some fellow bloggers, I have 100+ Tasty Thanksgiving Leftover Ham Recipes to try.
Make sure to bookmark or pin this post for the links to these recipes – there’s something for everyone’s taste buds.
