What to do with a leftover ham bone….make split pea soup, duh…I mean, what else would you do with a ham bone, especially one that still has juicy pieces of ham stuck to it? Don’t toss it! Split pea soup is my favorite way to use a ham bone and with Easter just right around the corner, you’ll be able to save your Easter ham bone and make split pea soup.
Kris and I host a Christmas party for all our friends every December. We roast a turkey, bake a ham, make mashed potatoes, rolls, salad, dessert. Pretty much go all out, it’s crazy, but I love it! I love hosting dinner parties. A lot of work but sooooo worth it! And the best part, leftovers! A week’s worth of leftovers, because after a full day of cooking for 20+ people, Kris and get to sit back and relax the day after the Christmas party (and maybe we might have drank a little too much as well…) and enjoy all the leftovers.
