Organic On a Budget (+Peach Glazed Ham Steak Recipe)

 As a general rule, anything you have to peel before you eat (such as bananas or garlic, for example) is relatively low in pesticides.
If you want to eat organic, splurge on produce with permeable or edible skin, such as peaches, lettuce, and apples.

Peach Glazed Ham Steak 

Recipe by Linda Larsen

Just three ingredients combine for a wonderful sweet and spicy glaze on a ham steak. You can grill the ham, or saute it on the stovetop for the same amount of time.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

• 2 Tbsp. brown sugar
• 2 Tbsp honey Dijon mustard
• 1/3 cup peach nectar
• 1/4 cup peach jam
• 1 lb. fully cooked ham slice, 1" thick
• 4 peaches, peeled and sliced
• 2 green bell peppers, each cut into strips

Preparation:

Prepare and heat grill. In small bowl, combine brown sugar, mustard, nectar, and jam and mix well. Make vertical cuts around the edge of the ham slice to prevent curling. Brush one side of the ham with the glaze. Grill ham, glazed side down, uncovered, over medium hot coats for 6-7 minutes. Turn ham and top with peaches and green pepper rings. Brush all with more glaze. Grill 7-9 minutes longer until ham is thoroughly heated and peaches and peppers begin to soften, brushing frequently with glaze. 4 servings
