Pattie Prescott of Manchester, New Hampshire says, âIâm always looking for creative yet family-pleasing ways to stretch my tight grocery budget. I usually make this delectable dish with ham âends,â available inexpensively at the deli counter.â Ingredients:
4 pita breads (6 inches), split |
1/4 cup olive oil |
4 cups ground fully cooked ham |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded swiss, american and cheddar cheeses |
1/4 cup mayonnaise |
1/2 teaspoon ground mustard |
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley |
additional shredded swiss cheese, optional |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°. Cut each pita half into eight wedges; brush rough sides with oil. Place on ungreased baking sheets. Bake 10-12 minutes or until golden brown, turning once. Remove to wire racks. 2. In a large bowl, combine ham, cheeses, mayonnaise and mustard. Transfer to a shallow 1-qt. baking dish. 3. Bake, uncovered, at 350° 15-20 minutes or until edges are bubbly. Sprinkle with parsley and additional Swiss cheese if desired; serve with pita wedges. Yield: 3-1/2 cups. |
