Recipe of the week - Ham Salad

 Ham salad is not something that I grew up with.  Now, we did have deviled ham, but to me that is something entirely different.  Now that I am cooking more, ham is something that I always seem to have leftovers of.  This is fine but sometimes I want to do something different with the leftovers.  I've put them in my hashbrown casserole before and cooked them with eggs, both are great.  So, I decided to search for a ham salad recipe and came across this one online.  We both really enjoyed it and I hope you will too.  It has definitely been added to my recipe cycle!


Ham Salad

1 1/2 pounds boneless cooked ham

1 hard boiled egg

1 stalk celery, roughly chopped

2 tsps finely chopped onion

2 tsps sweet pickle relish

3/4 cup mayonnaise

1 Tbsp prepared mustard

salt and pepper


Put the ham, egg, celery and onion into a blender or food processor.  Pulse 20-25 times to mince.  Combine remaining ingredients in a separate bowl then stir in the minced ham mixture.  Cover and chill for several hours.


This makes a great sandwich but I also enjoy it with crackers!
