This week I decided to focus on what to make for Christmas dinner. I have a week of recipes that you can add to you Christmas dinner or use all of the recipes for a complete Christmas menu.
We are kicking off the week with the main dish and I have a simple cranberry citrus holiday ham recipe that is all made in the slow cooker. With just a few extra ingredients you can dress up that traditional holiday ham.
It gets dressed up with some flavors that are more seasonal. We are talking cranberry, orange, ginger, and cloves!
