Re: [CnD] Oven Denver Omelet

Helen, I have never oven baked an omelet before. How could you tell when it was 
done without overcooking it? It sounds like a good way to feed 3 or 4 people 
without a lot of fuss.

This was dinner today.
It was really good! I've never made an omelet in the oven before.

Oven Denver Omelet

 

8 eggs

1/2 cup half and half
I used milk, I didn't have half and half

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup finely chopped cooked ham

1/4 cup finely chopped green pepper

1/4 cup finely chopped onion

 

In a bowl, beat the eggs and cream until light and fluffy.

Stir in the cheese, ham, green pepper and onion.

Pour into a greased 9" square baking dish.

Bake at 400F for 25 minutes or until golden brown.

 

Serves 4-6

Re: [CnD] Slow Cooker Ham With Ginger Ale

2019-09-28 Thread Helen Whitehead via Cookinginthedark
Hi Deb,
I used a cooked ham. Like Dale said, it makes it very tender and takes a lot of 
the sodium out. Try it! I will try it with coke, too, sometime.

Hi Helen,

Thanks so much for this recipe!  My husband and I used to love ham, and I 
especially liked the sandwiches we made from it.  But everything seems so salty 
now that we eat less salt.  I'm going to try this.  As my husband and sometimes 
me are out and in right now due to a family illness, it'll be something quick 
we can fix when we get home late at night.  And it'll smell good when we come 
back in from a visit on the day it's cooking.

One question though:  you did use uncooked ham, right?  Was it a particular 
brand?  My husband doesn't have much of a sense of taste so it's so hard to 
find things that he can taste and really enjoy.

Deb B.

Slow Cooker Ham With Ginger Ale

I made this on Sunday, September 22, 2019.
I put a boneless half ham, about 3 or 4 pounds in the slow cooker.
Then, I sprinkled some brown sugar on top.
On top of that, I poured a can of ginger ale.
I cooked it on low, for 7 hours.
It turned out very tender, and the ginger ale took a lot of the saltiness away.
I'd make it again!

Re: [CnD] Slow Cooker Ham With Ginger Ale

2019-09-28 Thread Food Dude via Cookinginthedark

We have made this using coca cola too...

the soda tenderizes the ham and cuts some of the sodium...

Never thought of using ginger

ale.

If you have not tried this, do so and you will be pleasantly surprised!

Very tasty and very easy!

all hams sold at a grocer

are cured. Usually smoked.
To get a "raw" ham, that is an uncooked one, you will need to contact a 
meat market.
