This is an unusal dish that I made last night and so good. I don't find it posted, so here goes.

From Grandma's Comfort Food - Made Healthy pg. 141

Ham - Sweet Potato - Apple Dish
Serves 4 (1 full cup)

2 full cups (12 oz) diced cooked sweet poatoes or yams
1 cup (2 small) cored, unpeled and chopped cooking apples

1 tabl. raisins
1/4 cup Cary's sugar free maple syrup
2 tabl. (1/2 oz) chopped pecans
1 full cup (6 oz) diced f/f ham or extra lean ham

In an 8 cup glass measuring bowl, combine sweet potatoes, apples, apricots and raisins. Stir in maple syrup. Cover and microwave on HIGH (100% power) for 6 - 7 min. Add pecans and ham. Mix well to combine. Continue microwaving on HIGH for 5 min.

Diabetic: 1 1/2 fruit, 1 starch, 1 meat, 1/2 fat

Ann's notes: I use red sweet potatoes, Granny Smith Apple, and golden raisins. A 6/7 oz. breakfast ham slice is perfect for this dish. I also just used a large Corning Ware casserole dish with a cover.

We licked the bowl clean. (the two of us)
