You might have noticed how the ”canned foods” theme has grown on this blog lately. This is because, as I am exploring new recipes and ways to improve my cooking, I have (re)discovered canned foods. And I like them very much! Not only do they bring back a part of my childhood I had forgotten, but also because they are very convenient ingredients to add to my daily cooking. This week I found canned ham at the supermarket and thought I should give it a try. Guess what! Delicious, as always. There are many canned ham recipes out there, and most of them involve adding vegetables (yay, fiber!). Thus, any type of food can be transformed into a healthy meal with a little imagination.
