I have to admit it I love ham. That is why Easter dinner is so delicious to me. My dad and step mom joined my family of six for Easter dinner yesterday. I made the meal. We had ham, homemade twice baked potatoes, the green bean casserole with durkee French fried onions, and rolls. As I mentioned I like ham so I bought a bigger than needed ham hoping to get some “planned overs” after the big meal. I thought when getting a ham that I should allow 1 and a half to 2 pounds per person like you do with turkey. Guess what I was wrong. I made a mistake, I goofed up. I have more ham than I know what to do with, I bought an 18 pound beast of a ham and have about 15 pounds left and this is after I stripped the meat off the bone for a soup bone. I don’t know what I was thinking but……I am going to have to watch Forrest Gump again so I can get the shrimp recipe ideas and turn them into ham ideas. Lets see I can barbecue it, broil it, bake it, sauté it, have it in gumbo, have ham soup, pineapple ham and a ham sandwich on rye of course. Tomorrow what happened to the jelly beans?
