Ham & Cheese Dippers put a spin on the traditional ham sandwich by cutting it into bite-sized squares, threading them onto a toothpick and dipping the skewers into sauces:

• Honey-Mustard (stir together 1/4 cup mustard and 2 tablespoons honey)
• Barbecue (stir together 1/4 cup barbecue sauce and 1 tablespoon Italian dressing)
• Fruit (stir together 1/4 cup fruit jam and 1 tablespoon of minced fruit of choice).

Ditch the bread and make Ham & Cherry Roll-Ups for lunch instead. This unique flavor combination will have kids (and grown ups) cheering for more. Stir together cream cheese, sliced green onions, chopped walnuts and cherry preserves and spread onto each ham slice. Then roll ‘em up and secure with a tooth pick.
