Use Leftover Ham (A Delicious Dinner Recipe Idea)

When I was a child, my mother made the most delicious ham and potato casserole. When she served it, I could never get enough. As an adult, I have searched and searched for this recipe without luck. But recently, I found a very similar recipe in the 1931 edition of "The Joy of Cooking." I have updated the recipe for today's cooks, but it tastes as good as ever.

If you enjoy this recipe, please rate it. Does this Spark an idea?
