Nice way to finish off a ham. I added the peas, but think next time I'll either add less or skip all together. The sauce was lovely. Made for tag game.

This was very good and pretty easy to make. It had a nice flavor. I might add peas next time like one reviewer did and it would give it a nice color and another complementary flavor. Thanks for sharing!! Brian

Very quick to put together and we really enjoyed the mushrooms and ham together. I think this would be just as good over mashed potatoes. We used the sherry and regular button mushrooms.
