Sarah Butler: If your kids eat ham sandwiches this is the cooking hack you need to know

Adding home-cooked ham cut into cubes is a super addition to this quiche recipe.

I love a recipe that makes your food week easier. Something that gives you lots of quick food options when you’re short on time, which most of us are.

A home-cooked ham does just that; there are so many things you can make with it. A cooked ham will keep in the fridge for 4-5 days; it’s ideal to make on Sunday ahead of a busy week. From that one recipe, you can enjoy fresh ham sandwiches for the kid’s lunchboxes, ham and mushroom vol au vents or pies, add some to your breakfast omelette, and of course, not forgetting the nation’s favourite, bacon and cabbage.
