What to do now that you have to finish up the ham. Kids really seem to love it. I really love this myself and it is something different from everything else when it comes to side dishes!
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. It will take 20-25 minutes to bake. It makes 4 servings so if you have teenage kids, Double!
Cook:
- 2 quarts of water
- 2 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. oil (The oil and salt keep the pot from boiling over)
- 3 cups Rigatoni or 1 3/4 cups Elbow Macaroni
In large bowl add:
- 2 cups diced leftover ham
- 4 oz. (1 cup) shredded cheddar
In medium saucepan, add all at once:
- 1/4 cup flour
- 2 Tbsp. margarine or butter
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 1/4 tsp. dry mustard
- 2 1/2 cups milk
Cooking constantly about 1 minute or until thick. Combine sauce with pasta mixture, add to 2 quart pan and toss;
- 2 oz (1/2 cup shredded cheddar)
- 1/2 cup potato chips
- Paprika, if you would like
And it is ready to bake! Yea! And it is so good. I hope you like it! lol!
