Loaded Ham Rolls with Mashed Potatoes

loaded ham rolls mashed potatoes

Loaded ham rolls with mashed potatoes is my goto recipe when I have little time to cook.

Getting work and family needs covered is often a struggle and I think itโ€˜s ok to sometimes use short cuts and make an easy, quick meal. But if you have more time, you can as well do everything in this recipe from scratch or prepare it ahead and just reheat it in the oven or microwave.

Video How To Make This Recipe

The Sauerkraut

sauerkraut and ham

This recipe contains sauerkraut and if you have watched my video for creamed sauerkraut then you will find this preparation very similar. I love putting cream into my sauerkraut to reduce the acid. With the much milder taste, even sauerkraut haters get convinced. Now, if you made creamed sauerkraut and have a leftover, this meal here is perfect to use it!

I also have a recipe for sauerkraut made from cabbage, which you can find HERE.

Sliced Ham

ham slices

I like to get a fresh, moist ham for this. Most pre-packed cold cuts are either very dry or somewhat slimy so I go to the service and let them cut some fresh slices from the ham. It needs to be thick enough to not fall apart but also thin enough to get rolled.

Whether you want it as honey ham or smoked or whatever they offer, just choose what you like!

The mashed potatoes

leftover mashed potato recipe

I love mashed potatoes and at some point in my life I was basically living on mashed potatoes with a fried egg on top. Still one of my favorite things to eat! Obviously I prefer to make it from fresh potatoes and itโ€˜s what I always try to use but sometimes I just canโ€˜t find the time to make it from scratch. My family knows that my schedule is on fire when I use a package like here in the video โ€ฆ they will then volunteer to clean the kitchen and unload the dishwasher etc. so itโ€˜s basically a signal for help, haha!
