Beverly's Ham Loaf with Pineapple Sauce
  This
recipe comes from Beverly in New York. She
says, "My Mom used to make Ham loaf using ground ham only. I never liked it because
it always seemed so salty. After trying many recipes I found that the addition of sweet
pork took a lot of the salty taste out as well as the addition of unsalted saltines. The
addition of a little green pepper gives it a great flavor and the sauce makes it an
exceptional treat. It is a great way to make a special dinner out of leftover ham."
