Spaghetti with Diced Ham, Tomato and Garlic
Escarole Salad with Red Onion and Shaved Parmesan
I am guessing that a lot of people have a whole lot of leftover ham from Easter in the fridge this week. Which is awesome. Besides ham sandwiches, ham omelettes, ham and eggs, potato gratin with diced ham, lentil soup with ham, ham eaten cold out of the fridge with a chocolate egg chaser, this pasta sauce is good and easy. It's an ersatz Amatriciana, I guess, with ham replacing pancetta. Saute lots of garlic in olive oil then add a couple of cups of diced ham and some dried hot red pepper. Add chopped tomatoes, a whole can or a box of Pomi. Simmer briefly while the spaghetti is cooking then toss the pasta in the sauce.
The salad is a robust match for a robust sauce.
