Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless cooked ham diced
- 2 stalks celery finely chopped
- 1 hard boiled egg
- 3/4 cup mayo
- 2 tablespoons sweet relish
- 1/2 tablespoon yellow mustard
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Place ham, ½ of the celery, and egg with some pepper into a blender or food processor.
- Pulse in quick short bursts, until it is minced, careful not to make a puree, you still want texture.
- In a large bowl combine the mayo, relish, the rest of the celery and mustard.
- Add the ham mixture to the mayo and combine.
- Cover and chill for at least an hour.
- Serve with crackers or a sandwich.
Notes
- The longer the salad chills, the more the flavors will combine. I would not add salt until you are ready to serve. The ham has lots of salt already in it.
- This is the perfect use for leftover holiday ham but ham steaks or a small ham will work too.
