What to do with ham leftovers...

Meaty Mac and Cheese


I made this last week not thinking about Easter and ham leftovers... this is a great recipe.

Meaty Mac and Cheese

8 oz elbow pasta
4 cups broccoli florets, cut into bite-size pieces
1 lb cubed ham (or precooked sausage cut up)
2 Tbsp milk, plus 1 cup
2 Tbsp flour
1 Tbsp butter
1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded

Cook butter with milk on high until boiling then add flour mixed with a small amount of milk.
Cook pasta for time indicated on package, add broccoli and ham into boiling water with 4 minutes left. Drain and mix in flour/milk mixture and cheese.
Cook at 350 for 20 minutes, just enough time to heat throughout.
