Ham and Mushroom Lasagna

This creamy, crazy-delicious lasagna is simple, too, thanks to jarred Alfredo sauce and no-boil noodles.

Ham and Swiss Waffles with Mustard Sour Cream

These scrumptious waffles top our list of favorite ways to use leftover Easter ham. In lieu of baking powder, the batter uses yeast for leavening. This adds a little time to the recipe, but your reward is a more interesting, slightly fermented flavor that complements the savory ham and cheese.Ham and Swiss Waffles with Mustard Sour Cream
