Simply Southern Ham Salad
Easy ham salad recipe. Use this delicious spread on crackers as an appetizer or on a sandwich.
Ingredients
- 16 oz. package Diced Cooked Ham or 2 cups of leftover chopped baked ham
- 1 small Yellow Onion, finely chopped
- 1 Jalapeno Pepper, veined and seeded, finely chopped
- 2 tbs Dill Pickle Cubes
- 1/4 c Mayonnaise, preferably Duke's Mayonnaise
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- Black Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Begin by adding the cubed ham to a small pot, covered with water and boil for about 30 minutes. The cubed ham is pre-cooked, boiling helps aid in texture.
- If using leftover holiday baked ham (no glaze) just chop or add to the food processor, there is no need to boil it.
- Next, drain the ham and allow it to cool a few minutes, then add to a food processor. Pulse the ham 6-8 times.
- Next, dice a small yellow onion and a jalapeno pepper. Remove the seeds and ribs from the jalapeno unless you prefer the extra heat.
- Finally, add the chopped onion and jalapeno pepper to a mixing bowl with the dill pickle cubes.
- Then, add the ham, mayonnaise, and seasonings and mix until combined.
- Serve as a sandwich spread or as a dip with crackers.
