So, that leftover Easter ham?

This didn’t suck…

Yummy!

You can find the well reviewed, high rated recipe at All Recipies.  The best part, I bet you have everything you need to make it in your pantry.  It gets a yummy, crispy crust on it.  I skipped the paprika on top AND opted not to add salt, since I was adding ham.

Have more ham than that?  Don’t forget to give Lumberjack Hash a try.  I serve it with fruit and cornbread.  It’s kind of like brinner and everyone loves it.

Didn’t you just post a menu plan yesterday?  Yes.  I did.  However, we decided to buy a ham anyhow and since there were leftovers, I opted to leave frozen food frozen and eat ham leftovers.  Because I like ham leftovers.

Not pig slop

Not pig slop

I know what you’re thinking.  After months of reading about my menu planning gripes, I’ve finally lost it and am now feeding my family slop.  Well, it might look like slop, but I assure you, it’s not.  It’s Lumberjack hash and if you have leftover holiday ham, but don’t think you can manage to eat one more batch of au gratin potatoes?  This is the recipe for you.

If you don’t have leftover ham, but you like ham?  This might be the recipe for you too.

Lumberjack Hash
Ingredients

  • 4 tsp oil of your choosing.
  • 1  cup  chopped onion
  • 1  cup  chopped bell peppers. I used red and green
  • 2  garlic cloves, minced
  • 8  cups  frozen shredded hash brown potatoes, thawed (about 1 pound)
  • 1/2  teaspoon  salt
  • 1/2  teaspoon  black pepper
  • 4  ounces  diced ham
  • 3/4  cup  (3 ounces) reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese

Heat oil/butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add onion; cook 5 minutes. Add bell pepper and garlic; cook 3 minutes. Add potatoes, salt, pepper, and ham; cook 16 minutes or until potatoes are golden brown, stirring occasionally. Top with cheese; cook 2 minutes or until cheese melts.  Serves four.  I added in some extra peppers, ham and potatoes to feed my hungry minions.

You won’t be sorry. If you like ham and potatoes.
