This is a wonderful, easy recipe to use up those holiday ham leftovers. You can add some veggies. I would suggest any of all of 1/2 cup celery, 4 oz. can of mushrooms, olives or peas. Even my picky kids love it and it has that homemade mac n cheese flavor. Adapted from a Mary Margaret McBride recipe, an ingenious woman, incredibly knowledgable for her time.
