Disclosure: Disclosure: I’ve partnered with Hormel Foods as part of the Hormel Foods Extended Family Blogger Program. Throughout the year I’ll be receiving product, coupons, giveaways and promotions. However, no payment was given or expected for posting about the program, and as always, all opinions given here are fully my own.

Hormel Cure 81 Ham is the easiest way to prepare a full healthy ham meal for your family. The hams are fully cooked and just go in the oven for a hour or so (depending on the pounds). It’s that simple. We love the ham, we use it as a dinner or with our breakfast for Ham and eggs.

Hormel is hosting a “Up The Stakes” recipe contest:
The “Up the Steaks” recipe contest challenges you to submit the most unique recipe featuring Hormel® Cure 81 ham steaks. It’s easy: just submit a recipe and you’ll be entered to win a grand prize valued at $1,500 ($1,000 gift card and a variety of kitchen tools and serving ware valued at $500)!
