Diced Ham's Many Uses
Not all of these are quick to fit this list, but the pre-prep makes it faster for any recipe you do pick.
Uses for Diced Deli Ham (cut by the store)
1. My Favorite: Eat it plain as a good protein snack (always choose lean)
2. Omlets (choose egg whites) or scrambled eggs (I can't make omlets, add veggies)
3. Small Baked Potatos minus sour cream and butter
4. Salads
5. Quesadillas (OR diced ckn from deli & wheat/low cal/carb tortillas)(add tomatoes and other veggies and reduce the low fat cheese and serve with sides)
6. Quiches (make mini ones and have snacks all week!) (tweak the recipe)
7. Put a few in green beans instead of bacon
8. Throw veggies and diced ham in a pita (again, choose carefully)
9. Saute it with nonstick spray and a few veggies and have a quick dinner or a wrap.
10. half a Bagel (choose carefully) with pizza sauce, low fat cheese and diced ham. Melt it in the microwave or toast it in the oven. Your choice. You can also add veggies (especially if you buy diced frozen onion, bell pepper (cook it) and some mushrooms).
Word of Caution: Portion this in baggies because it is TOO easy to eat it all in one sitting. I like this for me for me because if I go without food for just a little too long or take my meds and forget to eat, this will save me quickly. Also a good tag along bag for car trips (I take a mini cooler with a few snacks now that I'm watching what I eat). My only complaint is it can be a bit PRICEY.
