A very happy Easter! My father's big thing was to insist that ham had a bone, and insist my mother make ham and navy beans after every holiday. If we went to somebody's house, he would ask if they were throwing away the ham bone. If so, he would ask for it "for the dog." The dog never saw that bone when we had a dog, and before that, we were supposed to pretend and not blurt, "But we don't have a dog! Are we getting a dog? Yay!!!" When we got older and had holidays at our houses, we would lie and tell him we were going to use the bone.

A good use for leftover ham is ham stew. You boil the bone and take off the meat, then use the resulting broth to boil potatoes, carrots, onions, celery, and ham chunks, when veggies are soft, you thicken with flour slurry or cornstarch slurry. Check seasoning at the end, as ham can be salty. I like this served with homemade biscuit.

For decades I have occasionally enjoyed leftover cubed ham in a white sauce over toast. It's something my mother occasionally made and I imagine that cookbook expanded on that to make it more attractive. We did not put mustard. But you certainly could. We also used to make a can of mixed vegetables with the white sauce as a side and you could make the creamed ham with little vegetables added. It is very good and sometimes I crave it.

I bought a 2 1/2 pound ham for me and my husband for Easter and I also just remembered i have a pound or so of leftiver Christmas ham in the freezer! So maybe I'll make the ham sauce in the toast cups, too--except I think it would be delicious over cornbread. I appreciate all the hamspiration! ❤

One of my very favorite meals comes from when I was a child and I still make it whenever I have leftover ham. It is creamed ham and mushrooms. Just make a medium white sauce, add some sherry to taste, sautéed fresh mushrooms and diced up ham. I do serve it over toast cups which I feel elevates the dish visually. It is quick, easy and very delicious. I do like to serve it with peas or asparagus as well.

I don't know why folks would get mad if you made an executive decision or two based on your experience as a cook. That's what people who originally made these recipes did, so you're not doing anything that a 1970's housewife (or husband) wouldn't also have done. I'd have to make way more changes than you because I am lactose intolerant and there's lots of cheese, condensed milk, and cream in vintage recipes lol That being said, I would still totally try those ham dishes. They all looked so tasty and pretty simple to make too. I'm particularly interesting in trying that toast cup one since there's no cheese and I can use lactose free milk!
