This is a nice recipe to use up any leftover ham. I made this for dinner last Friday and forgot how good and light it is.
Another recipe I have that is good to use up leftover ham is called Farmers Casserole. It is a breakfast or in our house a brunch dish. If any of you would like to have it let me know and I will post it.

1 lb. uncooked penne pasta
3 c. cubed fully cooked ham
1 lge. sweet red pepper, diced
1 med. onion
1/4 c. minced fresh parsley
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tsp. basil
1/2 tsp. oregano
1/4 c. olive oil
3 tbsp. butter
1 tbsp. lemon juice
1 14.5 oz. can chicken broth (reduced sodium version is what I use)
1/2 c. Parmesan cheese

Cook pasta according to package directions. Meanwhile in large skillet saute ham, red pepper, onion, parsley, garlic, basil and oregano in oil and butter for 4-6 min. or until ham is brown and vegetables are tender.
Stir in broth and lemon juice. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 10-15 minutes or until liquid is reduced by half. Drain pasta, stir into ham mixture. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Serves 6.

thanks, this looks great...i'd love to see the farmer's brunch receipe too! thanks!
