Honey Ham Slice

not my picture but this ham looks just as tasty as
the one I make.

If you haven't already noticed a theme in a lot of the things I like to cook, I tend to go for things that are quick and easy.  While I do enjoy a challenge of trying new and more complex dishes, my everyday favorites are usually ones I know by heart so they aren't too complex.  This is something my mom always made because from the time you start to the time it's served it usually only about 10 minutes.  She's always been a no muss no fuss kind of cook, but this is always delicious.  I usually don't measure out the ingredients, but for this I tried my best to guess how much I use.  I love serving this ham with good old Velveeta mac and cheese since the sauce it created from the ham juices and other stuff tastes great with the cheese. 

Honey Ham Slice

about 1 pound ham slice (the kind with the bone in the middle)
2 Tbl light brown sugar, divided
1 Tbl honey, divided
1 tsp ground mustard, divided

Heat a non stick skillet to just below medium high heat.  As the skillet heats sprinkle half of the brown sugar, honey, and ground mustard in the pan, then place the ham and most of it's juices  over the seasoning.  Let the ham simmer for about 5 minutes.  Meanwhile, poke some holes in the ham with a fork as it cooks to help it absorb the flavors.  Sprinkle the rest of the seasoning on top of the ham.  After first side cooks, flip over and cook another 5 minutes.  Remove to a serving plate to cut into portions (remember, never use a metal knife, or any metal utensil, on non stick pans) don't forget the juice in the pan and pour a little over each portion. 

Serve With: Velveeta Style Mac and Cheese (using the Kraft kind just isn't the same)
