I cooked the ham exactly as was outlined on the box. It was simply to wrap it in foil & bake in at 325 degrees for 70 minutes. I boiled & then cooled the glaze. After 70 minutes, I removed the foil & glazed the ham. I baked it in 5 minute increments, adding glaze each time, for another 20 minutes. The only other directions I have to offer here is that the addition of the garlic roasted persimmons was inspired & I recommend you try it. I just peeled them & cut them into wedges, tossed them in a bit of olive oil with some minced garlic & added salt & pepper. I put them on the pan with the ham for the final 20 minutes the ham cooked. If yours are not tender in that time, just continue roasting until they are.

The turkey by this same company is also very good – especially cold. They make the best wraps!

So, I have seen this bad boy in the freezer section of Lassen’s for years but was put off by both the $50 price tag & the fact that it claims to feed 10-16 and I live alone. But, this year, I decided to review it for my Youtube channel.

While I did not really like either the gravy nor the stuffing that this came with, the turkey itself was REALLY easy to cook (just pop it in the oven for 40 minutes) and looked pretty decent & tasted really good. Unlike a real turkey, all of the 4lbs of this turkey is edible (no bones etc). It tasted great with my homemade vegan gravy and my vegan stuffing & 3-ingredient, raw cranberry sauce – all seen below.
