Cheesy Ham Poof
If you are a cheese lover, then this one is for you, this just melts in your mouth. If desired the cooked ham can be replaced with finely chopped cooked chicken or turkey, but i think it tastes much better with the ham, i have even added frozen squeezed chopped spinach to the mixture.....remember, serve this as soon as it comes out of the oven, that's when the taste is at it's peak. Great served with a side salad and crusty bread....your going to love this!!
