This morning I asked Anna (2) if she’d like some cereal, to which she replied, “No, thank you. Not today.” Could this be the reason?

– Western Omelettes (ham, cheese, bell peppers, onions)

My favorites to eat with ham (besides cheese) are either asparagus or broccoli. Here is one simple casserole to help with ham leftovers:
Ham ‘n Broccoli Bake
* 1 1/2 cups chopped fresh broccoli
* 4 slices cooked ham
* 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
* 2 cups basic white sauce
* 2 teaspoons dry mustard
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* dash pepper
* 1 tablespoon minced onion
White Sauce
* 2 tablespoons butter
* 2 tablespoons flour
* 1 cup milk
* salt
* white or black pepper
Cook broccoli until almost tender; place in buttered casserole. Top with sliced ham. Make white sauce and add cheese to thickened sauce; cook over low heat until cheese has melted. Add remaining ingredients to the sauce; pour over ham and broccoli. Bake casserole at 400° for 20 to 25 minutes.
Serves 4.
Sun: Chicken Tacos
Mon: Chicken Tetrazzini, asparagus
Tues: Sausage Cheddar Egg Bake, salad
Wed: leftover Tetrazzini
Thur: Spinach & Pea Risotto
Friday: leftovers or out
