When I was a little girl, just a few DECADES ago, my Mom used to make a sandwich spread out of leftover ham. I hadn’t thought about it in years when all of a sudden, the memory just popped in my head. Since I just cooked a ham yesterday, I decided to bring out the food processor and see what I could create. I added a bit of this and a bit of that, and came up with this delicious spread. My Mom always decorated the ham with whole cloves and I loved that hint of flavor, so I added just a smidgeon of ground cloves to this dish. My husband absolutely loved it (no surprise…he LOVES ham), and I think you will too!
