Jelly Bean Fun

When people think of ham, they usually think of a holiday meal. In our household, we enjoy eating ham several times a year.

After our meal is over, I like to freeze my cooked ham so that I can use it in future recipes. Before you freeze it, cube or chop it up into bite-sized pieces. I like to freeze mine in 2 cup containers.

Here are 4 delicious casserole recipes that You Can make using your left-over ham.

Betty’s Cheesy Green Bean Casserole Recipe

Younger Kids Can get Picky

In Betty’s Recipe She includes the Black Pepper…..   My mother showed me a trick she used on the Young Kids who would not eat anything with specks in it  ” IT IS ALL PEPPER, I don’t want any” So my Mom would substitute Ground White Pepper here to give it a good Flavor even the Kids like the Taste, but they Can’t See It so they don’t have a complaint……..
