Easy Everyday Ham

So Ian is allowed to eat today, but really, all he wanted was a grilled cheese sandwich and Campbell’s® Tomato Soup, so I am going to post a dinner that we made about a week ago.

This is the easiest and tastiest recipe ever. You know those hunks of smoked ham that you always pass at the supermarket, well go back and pick one up, it is super cheap. Then go get yourself a can of pineapple rings and dust off the cloves on your spice rack. That’s all you need, and in an hour you will have a smoked ham that feeds four, with leftovers for lunch, and for pennies. I’m not kidding. Try it, and then thank Ian and me. Enjoy.

Easy Everyday Ham
2 pound smoked ham, can be bigger or smaller
1 can of pineapple rings
20 cloves

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Put ham in large roasting pan. Cover with pineapple rings; stick them in place with the pointy end of the cloves. Pour leftover pineapple juice in bottom of roasting pan and cover with lid. Roast for 1 hour, or 30 minutes per pound. Cut and serve with applesauce and mustard.

Ian, Christie, and Coco

Christie and Ian are a couple living in Montreal whom are in their late 20’s and early 30's. When Christie met Ian he would eat bologna sandwiches for dinner because that is just what single guys do. Christie began to cook for the both of them and so started their culinary adventures. Ian is the photographer and Christie looks after most of the cuisine and sweets. They both graduated with a BFA in Painting and Drawing. While Ian went off to work for the man and is doing quite well for himself, Christie kept on and just finished her second degree in a Specialization in Cell and Molecular Biology. Coco Bean Chanel is Christie’s cat. Coco is one of those animals that can make a horrible day bright, and is so cute no one can resist her purr powers. It’s true. Ian is crazy about photography and Christie. Christie is crazy about cooking and Ian…. and her Coco Bean.
