I halved the recipe and used a small canned ham for just the three of us and had plenty of everything for the ham. It was so delicious and my 2 year old asked for another piece, which is very unusual! We were all totally satisfied with it , so into my keepers it goes!

Oh wow, is this good, hubby is smacking his lips!!! This went quite well with Derf's stove top scalloped potatoes. Will definately be making this recipe again. Made for the Alphabet Soup Recipe Tag Game.
