Nacho Ordinary Cinco De Mayo: HoneyBaked Ham & Black Bean Nachos

It's almost Cinco de Mayo and our HoneyBaked Ham Douglasville crew is celebrating in a not-so-ordinary way by adding our classic Honey Baked Ham to everyone's favorite Mexican-style dish... nachos!

Try this delicious recipe tonight. It's muy bueno!

HoneyBaked Ham & Black Bean Nachos

Ingredients
- 1 large bag of tortilla chips
- 4 jalapeno peppers
- 2 cups HoneyBaked Ham, cubed 
- 1 ½ cups or 15 ounce can Black Beans, cooked and drained
- 8 ounces Salsa (we used 505 Southwestern Chipotle Honey Roasted Green Chile salsa)
- 1 cup smoked Gouda cheese, grated
- 1 cup mild cheddar cheese, grated
- 1 cup pepper jack cheese, grated
- ¼-1/3 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 8 ounces of sour cream

Directions
1. Turn on the oven broiler. On a baking sheet, place the jalapeno chilies. Place the baking sheet underneath the broiler element in oven. Check frequently for blackening. Once the chile has blackened on one side rotate it until all sides are fully blackened (note: the skin will be difficult to remove if it has not blackened first).
2. Remove the chilies from the oven and place into a zip plastic bag. Seal and place in the refrigerator for 15 minutes or until cool enough to handle with your hands.
3. Peel off the blackened outer skin of the chile. Remove the stem, seeds and inner membrane (attaches the seeds to the inside of the chile). Chop and set aside (note: the oils from chilies can be very painful if they come in contact with areas such as the eyes or nose). When working with chilies practice frequent hand washing or consider wearing latex-type gloves.
4. Heat the oven to 400 degrees. In a large bowl, add the three cups of cheese and stir to fully combine. Set aside. Prepare a baking sheet with a layer to tortilla chips to cover the pan.
5. Sprinkle 1/3 of the chopped ham and cheese over the first layer of chips. Add a second layer of chips, completely covering the first. 
6. Layer on the remaining ham, black beans, roasted chopped jalapeno chilies and salsa topping with the remaining cheese.
7. Place in the heated oven until the cheese fully melts (usually less than 5 minutes). 
8. Remove; top with chopped cilantro and sour cream (or serve both on the side if desired). Eat immediately.

Peas and Thank You: HoneyBaked Ham & Black-Eyed Pea Soup with Greens

You’ll find most people throughout the south (and among our HoneyBaked Ham Douglasville crew) eating black-eyed peas and greens on New Year’s Day, but do you know why?! 


Have you ever heard of the old saying, “Eat poor on New Year's, and eat fat the rest of the year?”

Eating black-eyed peas on New Year’s has been considered good luck for more than 1,500 years. It's also been a Jewish custom to eat these particular legumes in celebration of Rosh Hashanah, which is the Jewish New Year. These fiber-packed peas also symbolize humility and a lack of vanity (who knew?!). 

Obviously, most people associate good luck with monetary gain...where is where eating greens with your black-eyed peas comes in! The most common veggies to mix with your good luck beans are:
- turnip greens
- mustard greens
- collard greens (these are our fave)

Pork is a staple of just about every Southern meal, so it’s usually cooked with the black-eyed peas. The pork (especially when you use our delicious HoneyBaked Ham ) seems to be in recipes mainly for flavor rather than symbolism... but many people believe that because pigs root forward when foraging, the pork represents positive motion.

Enjoy this delicious HoneyBaked Ham & Black-Eyed Pea Soup with Greens this New Year's Day:

In a 4 quart saucepan heat and cook until tender:
 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
 - 1 medium onion
 - 1 garlic clove

Add:
 - 1/2 pound collard greens (stems removed and leaves finely    
  chopped)

 - 2 cups of low-sodium chicken stock
 - 2 cups water
 - 1 small, finely minced jalapeño pepper (optional)
 - 1 small knuckle from a HoneyBaked Ham bone,
   with the meat removed from the bone (approx. 3/4 to 1 cup)

Simmer until greens are tender (about 20 minutes).

Meanwhile, rinse and drain:
 - a 16 oz. can of black-eyed peas (or about 1 1/2 cups frozen and thawed). Mash half of them with the back of a spoon and add all to the soup mixture.

Add:
-1 medium tomato, diced

Simmer for 5 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper

Stir in:
 - 1 teaspoon cider vinegar
 - a dash of hot sauce (optional)

Serve & enjoy (serves 2) your HoneyBaked Ham & Black-Eyed Pea Soup with Greens.

Here's to good luck and great fortune in 2017! --Your HoneyBaked Ham Douglasville Crew
