ham and swiss lasagna
This is something we like to make after having a holiday ham. If we feel "all hammed out..." then we prepare the ham for the recipe and freeze it for the Super Bowl party. (One less thing to do for the party). We enjoy having non traditional foods... keeps life interesting and fun! This is comfort food... not for dieters! ***This can be doubled or tripled easily. *** For parties, we usually cut smaller squares because there is always so much food for people to fill their plates. You can add other things to make it your own recipe! Play With Your Food! xo
