Ham Leftovers Get Creative with Cajun and Cuban Inspired Dishes

April 8, 2020 By Kim Galeaz

  Time for a twist with all that leftover ham in your fridge. Try Cajun Red Beans and Rice with Ham and Andouille Sausage or Cuban Empanadas. Or both. Why do I love ham as a registered dietitian nutritionist? Because it's lean and low fat as well as versatile. Ham has only 3 grams fat in every 3 ounce portion. That's lean. Plus, it packs around 20 grams protein in every 3 oz. serving. Get a dose of immune-supporting nutrients with Cajun Red Beans and Rice with Ham & Andouille ...
