Mini Ham Loaves
These mini ham loaves are a family favorite. My aunt used to make them every Easter. The recipe comes from an old church cookbook. Whenever I order meat from the local meat market, I order ground ham and pork premixed. I order triple the required meat, packaged into three packages. I give one to my mother, use one, and freeze one to use later. Serve these loaves with horseradish.
