11. One of my favorites for leftover ham - South Pacific Casserole

1 to 1 1/2 cups ham, cubed
1 cup rice, uncooked
1/2 cup green pepper, chopped
1/2 cup onion, chopped
1 to 1 1/2 tsp curry powder
1 tsp salt
2 tblsp brown sugar
1 1/2 cups orange juice (or to taste)

Cook rice according to package directions. Saute green pepper and onion until tender. Add brown sugar, curry powder and 1/2 cup orange juice. Cook until ingredients are well mixed and sugar is melter. Add rice, ham, salt and remaining orange juice. Place in casserole. Bake at 350 for 30 5o 40 minutes. Serve with chutney.

I've added stuff like raisins, chopped apples, or chopped pears just to change it out and vary the taste. It freezes well at the step just before baking. I've also substituted leftover roast pork for the ham.
