This pre-cooked ham is ready to be enjoyed straight from the package. For sandwiches, layer the slices between your favorite bread with condiments and other fillings. For breakfast, it can be served alongside eggs or as part of a breakfast casserole. If desired, the ham can be lightly heated in a skillet or microwave before serving, though this is not required.
