Thank you for all of the recipes posted, I think I will try the pineapple gravy.

Susan

You're very welcomed - pineapple goes well with ham. I hope you enjoy it. (I would make it now - taste and see if you like it so that you won't have any disappointed guests)

Welcome Susan. I can sometimes help with low sodium recipes. I got stuck on that diet years ago after a heart attack.
