Ultimate Ham & Cheese Toastie Recipe
Every year my family and I go camping right after Christmas and we always take the leftover leg of ham to make this scrumptious toastie. If you asked my kids, they would say these toasties are the best part of the holiday! I prepare the onion at home and we toast ours in the Weber barbecue. This is such a winning combination.
