The BEST leftover ham recipe

                                                                                                                                  
1. Leftover ham, cut into small pieces (can use turkey too)
 2. About 1/2 c. mayonnaise (enough so it is slightly wet but not soppy in the bowl)
 3. About 3/4 c. swiss or mozzarella cheese, cubed (I like a lot, to taste really) we used Gruyere from Monte Cristo sandwiches
 4. Crescent rolls (1 pkg. makes 8 which was enough for the 5 of us)
 5. Dill, salt, pepper and thyme to taste (could add dried cranberries & half packet of ranch dip mix packet too)                                                                                                                                                                  All you do is cube the ham/turkey and cheese, add the rest of the ingredients and stir in a bowl. Then lay each crescent roll with the larger part of the triangle inside the muffin tin and the smaller end hanging out. Scoop the mixture inside the muffin cup, and fold the smaller end over the top and tuck it underneath a bit. Bake as directed on the crescent roll container (take out when browned on top), and waaallaahhhhh…..they were great!

My notes: Super easy, 1 bowl, 1 cutting board.
