Yes, you could use bulk sausage meat and brown and drain it first, or you could slice up sausage links.
As for the thin sliced deli ham, if that's what you have on hand, then I'd say use it. This dish is a way to use up dribs and drabs of stuff that are hanging around in the fridge. You could use cooked and crumbled bacon too. Or leave the meat out altogether and put in a package of frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well drained. A few sliced mushrooms ...
