Left-over Christmas Ham?

Here is a delicious way to use up some of that left-over Christmas ham... Steph and I have enjoyed a few of these sandwiches this week! I paired mine with a handful of roasted pecans on the side. Yummmmmm!

GRILLED HAM & CREAM CHEESE SANDWICHES

Approximately 1 cup Ham, finely diced

1/2 cup softened cream cheese

1/2 cup finely-grated cheddar-jack cheese

1/4 cup mayonnaise

1 teaspoon dry Italian Dressing Mix (such as Good Seasons)

1/4 teaspoon dried dill weed

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Sliced Bread
Butter (for grilling)

Sliced Tomatoes

Sliced Avocado

Shredded Lettuce

Combine first seven ingredients in a mixing bowl; stir until well-combined. Spread a small amount of ham mixture between two slices of bread. Heat butter in a large non-stick skillet. When pan is hot, place prepared sandwiches into pan and grill until golden brown on both sides, turning and adding more butter to the pan as needed. Remove from heat, add tomatoes, avocado and lettuce if desired. Slice sandwiches and serve warm.

I hope everyone is enjoying their week after Christmas! Only two more days until the new year!

Until next time...
