Making ham for Christmas and know you will have leftovers? Here are 15 Creative Ways to Use Up your leftover ham! These easy ham recipes will repurpose your leftovers into something you actually want to eat!
Too much leftover ham? Today I am partnering with Smithfield to share Fifteen Creative Ways to Use Leftover Ham.
We are in the home stretch to Christmas! We couldn’t be more excited here! We will have a packed day of family, presents, and food! We start off at our house, go to my Mother in law’s, and then finish at my Aunt’s house.
There will be tons of food at her house and I always look forward to finishing off Christmas there. We usually drive home with full bellies and a very sleepy little girl in the back seat. Last year, she was way too excited to eat so she brought a baggie full of ham in the car with her! It was so funny to look back there and see her half asleep gnawing on a big slice of spiral ham!
We always have way too much food, but having leftovers is half the fun right? In recent years we have tried to make things easier on ourselves by preparing less labor-intensive food. Smithfield Signature Spiral Sliced Ham is delicious and so easy to prepare! Just pop it in the oven at 275 degrees for about 10 – 12 minutes per pound, then evenly brush on the glaze of your choice and you’re done. If you need a good glaze recipe, I love this fun version made with peaches!
There are so many great ideas on what to do with ham leftovers. It is so versatile and can be used in breakfast, lunch or dinner! I love that it can be tucked into a breakfast burrito, sliced for a sandwich for lunch, or repurposed completely into a delicious soup or casserole for dinner! Really, what other food has that much versatility? Here are some great ideas for your leftover Smithfield Spiral Ham.

All of these recipes have my mouth watering. Sadly, I probably won’t have leftover ham from the holidays because I’m not hosting, but I may have to grab a ham just so I can make some breakfast burritos and ham mac n cheese soup.
Make sure to ask the host for a doggie bag! 🙂
There is always ham leftover from Christmas dinner, I’m excited to try out some of these recipes!
Love all of these. My mom and mother in law always cook a ham on Christmas. This will definitely come in handy.
I am definitely going to reference this next Monday when I have a big tupperware container filled with our Christmas ham. Love these ideas.
I hope you find something that you love!
The Hawaiian rice looks amazing! One of my favourite things about Christmas is the food – we eat Christmas leftovers for days after
Yes! The food is one of the best parts!
These are brilliant ideas! I definitely need this since we are having ham for Christmas!

Those breakfast enchiladas with sour cream have my mouth watering this morning. I can’t wait to try some of these!
These are all such great ideas! And that reminds me — I need to buy ham for Christmas dinner. Thank you for all the awesome leftover ham recipes!
This is really great. I haven’t had ham in such a long time I think it would be a great idea to get some and be able to do any of these with left overs. It all looks so delicious!
These are all looks yummy! I want them all and such a perfect recipe. I would love this on weekend.
One of my favorite things about the post Christmas week is the leftover food! My mom was the queen of leftover recipes and yum!
My father is making a ham for Christmas tomorrow. I will definitely be using some of these delicious recipes to prepare any leftovers.
Perfect timing! I have a ton of left over ham! I usually put it into a split pea soup, but these all look delicious!
How delicious do all of these look? We love Smithfield’s products! That bacon looks amazing!
My mom and I were just discussing what to do with leftover ham yesterday! I want to give those breakfast enchiladas a try.
