Instructions

 

• Prepare cornbread according to recipe directions.
• When the cornbread is almost done, melt the butter in a large saucepan. Stir in the flour until smooth. Slowly add the milk while stirring constantly. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2-3 minutes or until the mixture thickens. Stir in cheese until melted. Add the ham and heat through.
• Cut the cornbread into squares. If desired, cut each square in half through the middle as if cutting a biscuit in half. Serve the cornbread topped with the cheesy ham mixture.

Notes

• This is a perfect way to use up leftover holiday ham! I also love serving this for breakfast.
