I fix this moist, tender ham to serve my large family. It can be readied quickly in the morning, frees up my oven, tastes outstanding and can feed a crowd. Covered with colorful pineapple slices, cherries and orange glaze, tis showstopping appearance appeals to both children and adults. —Denise DiPace Medford, New Jersey

Easy wonderful juicy!

We made this for Thanksgiving this year, as almost everyone wanted ham instead of turkey. It was easy to make, and delicious to eat. I am making it again tonight for dinner. I have a large hungry family, so easy dinners that feed everyone are very important to me.

I first made this for a church potlock. I got MANY rave reviews. Being a young newlywed, I now enjoy making this when I want a beautiful yet so easy dinner for me and my husband. He absolutely loves it when I make this for him.
