Iowa Ham Balls
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. Bake: 1 hour
YIELD: 15 servings.
This is a special recipe my whole family likes. Every time they visit and I make ham balls, they're all smiles. When I take this to potluck meals, I'm always asked to share the recipe. It's very appropriate for my region, too, since Iowa farmers raise prize-winning pigs and cattle. —Helen Koehler, Liscomb, Iowa
