What goes with baked ham?

Question

Iam a non meat eater and have been volunteered to bake a ham for our family dinner. It will be at my home and I can't remember what my mother used to serve with ham. Need suggestions, please. Others are bringing appetizers an deserts.

Answer 1

We like to have either au gratin or scalloped potatoes with ham. Or sometimes I'll make yams or sweet potatoes - if I'm not in the mood for a cheesy white potato! And a green vegetable - beans or broccoli is always nice. And then applesauce or Waldorf salad - apples just seem to go with ham or pork!

I hope you enjoy your family dinner. Happy New Year!

Answer 4

I am going to make a ham dinner as well. I will be serving mashed potatoes (yukon gold) and mashed sweet potatoes, black eyed peas, green beans, apple sauce with nutmeg and/or cinnamon and a salad.

This is the recipe I use for the sweet potatoes, it is very very good! You have to make it exactly as told or it doesn't taste right. I found the peppers at my super walmart.
