I've been hamming it up! Today was all about cooking with ham!
I also made Ham Salad, which will be in a future post, as a result of my "free" Thanksgiving 6 pound, fully cooked ham, that I've had stashed away in the freezer.
I doubled the recipe with the intent of having one for quick suppers during the upcoming week and the second to seal with my Foodsaver and freeze for a later time when I'm not in the mood or just too busy to cook. Believe it or not, that does happen!
I can only recall having Ham Loaf a few times growing up. I guess because ham leftovers were few and far between at our house. When we were lucky enough to have one, the entire family devoured it.
We devoured at our house growing up. Mealtime was focused on eating and not leisurely dining with conversation as there was often work yet to be done before dark. While this may be foreign to many folks, it is the way I grew up.
I've altered the recipe for the Ham Loaf to fit my low carb way of eating, but I've included the original ingredients beside each item for those of you who want to make the original version.
I just pulled this out of the oven and had to snitch a sample to see how it tasted (quality control you know). It is yummy! I ate 1/2 the slice while taking the photos!
