Holiday Ham Recipe from Evette Rios

Is ham the centerpiece of your family’s holiday meal? They are delicious, but ham recipes can be packed with calories.

When I’m making ham for my family, I use no-calorie cola to make a sweet, great-tasting baste without additional calories!! Try this with your favorite no-calorie cola!
