Grilled ham with coleslaw - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes! Green cabbage is traditional, but red cabbage, Napa cabbage, or even Brussels sprouts (shaved thin) work well for a twist.
Store coleslaw in an airtight container for up to 3 days. The texture may soften over time as the cabbage releases moisture.
Try honey mustard, maple syrup mixed with a dash of hot sauce, or a smoky barbecue sauce for a different flavor profile.
Absolutely! Swap the ham for grilled tofu, tempeh, or portobello mushrooms, and adjust the cooking time accordingly.
Increase the mayo or sour cream slightly, or add a tablespoon of Greek yogurt for extra tang and creaminess.
Cornbread, roasted potatoes, or a crisp green salad complement this dish beautifully.
Yes, slice the ham and freeze it in an airtight container for up to 2 months. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave.
Skip the sweet chili sauce (or use a sugar-free version) and ensure your coleslaw dressing is low in added sugars.
Cover the ham with foil and warm it in a 300°F (150°C) oven for 10–15 minutes, or until heated through.
