Description
A delicious ham salad recipe perfect for sandwiches or with crackers.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb cooked ham, cubed or diced
- 1 cup celery, diced
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- ¼ cup dill pickle, chopped (or use relish)
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Pulse the cooked, cubed 1 lb ham in a food processor to reach a broken-down texture (but not too much as the ham will turn to a gummy paste).
- Transfer the chopped ham into a medium-sized mixing bowl and add the remaining ingredients (chopped 1 cup celery, ½ cup mayonnaise, ¼ cup dill pickle, 1 tsp Dijon mustard, and ground black pepper).
- Stir until evenly distributed and you have a smooth ham salad mixture. Add more mayonnaise for a creamier consistency if desired.
- Cover and chill before serving, then enjoy with some crackers or as a ham salad sandwich.
Notes
- Chill the salad for at least an hour for best flavor.
- Try adding chopped hard-boiled eggs for extra richness.
