8 SPAM Meal Ideas to Try for Dinner
I am a huge fan of having a well-stocked pantry. One of the essentials to have is an easy protein option so you can make easy dinners without defrosting and also in case of a power outage.
SPAM has been a favorite of mine since I was a child but that is probably because my dad really likes it too! We typically ate it a lot of breakfast, but SPAM is highly versatile.
Here is a collection of my favorite ways to use SPAM for dinner:
1. SPAM Fried Rice
This is actually a great dish to use up leftover white rice and veggies too!
2. SPAM McMuffins
OK technically this is a breakfast food, but I actually eat them a lot for easy lunches! You can totally freeze these as well!
3. SPAM Ramen Upgrade
This dish can get a little salty if you use the ramen flavor pack, so I usually skip that part and opt to cook the noodles in low sodium broth instead!
4. SPAM Sliders
Move over Ham Sliders there is a new tasty treat in town!
5. Hawaiian SPAM Pizza
I love pineapple on a pizza and I even love SPAM on a pizza!
6. SPAM Mac & Cheese
I’m assuming everyone has done this before, but it is so yummy, it has to be on the list too!
7. SPAM and Potato Hash
This is so good as a base for a fried egg on top or another favorite of mine is to wrap this up in a tortilla!
8. SPAM Breakfast for Dinner
I mentioned my family typically eats SPAM for breakfast, so why not just have Breakfast for Dinner?
SPAM Dinner Ideas
I hope these ideas have inspired you to look at SPAM in a new light. Really you can substitute SPAM for any recipe that asks for already cooked ham. We really are only limited by our imagination, so put SPAM to the test in your next easy dinner!
