This ‘Glazed Ham Heaven’ is the perfect centerpiece for a low-carb Christmas meal—5 ingredients, and the glaze is divine!
By Georgia Lynn
Baked ham with a dijon glaze has been a staple on Midwestern tables for generations, a dish that brings back memories of festive family gatherings and Sunday dinners. This comforting recipe, passed down from my grandmother, makes good use of simple ingredients to create a dish that’s both flavorful and low in carbohydrates, perfect for today’s more health-conscious diets. It’s a reminder of how sometimes the simplest recipes can bring the most joy. Whether it’s the holidays or just another Sunday, this ham will surely be a family favorite.
This baked ham shines brightly when paired with classic Midwestern sides. Think of a fresh green bean almondine or a crisp cabbage slaw for some crunch, or perhaps a cauliflower mash for those mindful of carbs. Cornbread or whole grain rolls are perfect to sop up every last drop of the delicious glaze. And don’t forget a tangy cranberry relish as a refreshing complement to the savory ham.
