Tips:

  • Choose the right ham: For this recipe, it's best to use a cooked ham that is not too salty. A smoked ham or a spiral-cut ham would be good choices.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for a mix of vegetables, such as bell peppers, onions, and celery. However, you can also add other vegetables that you like, such as mushrooms, broccoli, or zucchini.
  • Cook the noodles al dente: Al dente means "to the tooth" in Italian, and it refers to the texture of pasta that is cooked through but still has a slight bite to it. This is the ideal texture for this recipe.
  • Don't overcook the ham: Ham is already cooked, so you just need to heat it through. Overcooking it will make it tough and dry.
  • Season to taste: This recipe is a good starting point, but you may want to adjust the seasonings to your own taste. Add more salt, pepper, or garlic powder, as desired.

Conclusion:

This leftover ham and noodles recipe is a quick and easy way to use up leftover ham. It's a delicious and versatile dish that can be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With a few simple tips, you can make this recipe your own and enjoy it time and time again.
