Whether it’s the main dish for your holiday or just a regular ol’ Sunday night dinner this Glazed Ham needs to be at the center of the table.
So I have been meaning to share this recipe since Easter…no not Easter this year but Easter in 2013. Don’t judge I blame the many moves and the babies. Then my intention this year was before Thanksgiving but that didn’t happen. I am just grateful that I can send out my weekly dinner menus and share with yall one recipe a week. Maybe one day I’ll get more of my act together…goal maybe for 2016?
I’ve always loved a good ham. I mean I did work at HoneyBaked Ham for about a year in college. Working at a food place and retail place are not for me because all I want to do is eat the food and spend my paycheck on the clothes. But when I worked at HBH I was able to take a ham home for the holidays…but this is oh so much better. Not that I am bragging or anything (wink wink).
This ham is the perfect dish for your Christmas Eve dinner or even perfect with some sweet potato biscuits and apple butter for Christmas morning breakfast.
Speaking of Christmas what’s on your wish list?
