I knew the perfect side dish to go with ham-- a creamy, cheesy green chile and hominy dish.
While pulling out the ingredients, I realized that I had run out of cumin powder. Luckily I had plenty of cumin seeds. Freshly ground spices taste better anyway...
Add the cumin and green chiles.
Serve warm to enjoy the gooey goodness.

If thisn't wasn't being served with ham, it would be super delicious with chunks of ham mixed into it.
