You knew that hubby brought a ham if you read my discussion about at least this time I was warned.
The price dropped 40 cents per pound between when he first saw it and when he bought it. He got it for a very good price.
He cut the ham from the bone, and I made pinto beans with it. That was good.
We are having really good sandwiches as this ham had great flavor.
I think that will be my bedtime snack.

They seem to be having good post-Easter sales.

This was a fairly fresh crop of pintos I think as they cooked up really tender. Do you like cornbread?

@GardenGerty The prosciutto (cured ham) is an Italian specialty and less expensive there than here in Switzerland.

I haven't had ham in awhile. Pinto beans are really good with it.

Yes, it was. Cooking with the bone adds a lot of extra nutrition, and it does really taste good.

We had ham for Easter and I had a couple of sandwiches after. I do like ham. I try not to eat too much of it though. It is one of the meats that I do like the taste.

I am trying to have variety in our meals. Hubby tends to buy sausages, but you can actually do more with ham in my opinion.

@GardenGerty Yes, you can do more with ham than sausages.

If you can use it up and not let it spoil it certainly is.

I try to cook a bean dish every week and it has been a long while since we have had a ham.

@GardenGerty We used to have beans for dinner about every week or so when the girls were still living at home.

Tony wwill buy a ham, I will cook a couple times from it and then he doesnt want it anymore, so I give it away. I refuse to buy him anymore hams, now he gets slices of ham.
I try not to eat any, I want to be vegan again, I have got to get this 20 pounds off and get my sugar under control.

My sister would not be able to handle an entire ham. She will buy ham hocks for her beans if there are any in the store and ham lunch meats.

Ham sandwiches are the best, we got a ham recently and used some for dinner and now the rest is lunch meat!
