Well, how could I not make an "open face" sandwich w/leftover ham and Megan's homemade ham gravy which was outstanding!!!
Now, my husband doesn't eat cooked kale but this sandwich packed so much flavor he never once mentioned that he didn't like the greens.
No doubt I will be making this again next time we have ham.

How to Make Hamtastic Holiday Sandwich
- Get your mashed potatoes out of the refrigerator and add your tapenade to 1 1/2 cups of potatoes. Form into a patty and drop down into some flour. Lightly coat. Heat butter or oil in pan till hot and add your mashed potato cakes. Cook till crisp on both sides. While cooking the cakes add your ham slices into the pan as well.
Once the cakes are done place them in a bowl covered to keep warm. Add your sliced cheese on top of your ham in pan. Add a little water to pan and cover with lid. Let the steam melt the cheese on the ham.
