Ingredients
- 4 cups cooked ham finely chopped
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- ⅓ cup celery finely diced
- 2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- In a food processor, add your chunks of ham. Pulse a few times until the ham is finely chopped but not completely pureed. You want some texture in there.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped ham, mayonnaise, celery, sweet pickle relish, Dijon mustard, and black pepper. Stir everything together until well combined.
- Give your ham salad a quick taste. Adjust the seasoning if needed. Maybe a tad more pepper or a bit more relish depending on your preference.
- Transfer the ham salad to a container with a lid and refrigerate for at least an hour before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully. Serve it on your favorite bread, crackers, or even wrapped in lettuce for a low-carb option!

Notes
- : Serve it on bread, croissants, or crackers. It's also great in lettuce wraps for a low-carb option or as a filling for tomatoes and avocados.
- Ham Selection: You can use leftover cooked ham, deli ham, or even canned ham. If you prefer a less salty option, go for a lower-sodium ham.
- Texture Tip: For the best texture, chop the ham in a food processor until it's finely chopped but still has some texture. Avoid over-processing to prevent it from becoming too paste-like.
- Customize Your Flavor: Feel free to adjust the amounts of mayonnaise, mustard, and relish to suit your taste. Add more relish for sweetness or more mustard for tanginess.
- Make-Ahead: This salad can be made ahead and stored in the fridge. In fact, it tastes better after it has been chilled for a few hours as the flavors meld together.
- Serving Suggestions: Serve it on bread, croissants, or crackers. It's also great in lettuce wraps for a low-carb option or as a filling for tomatoes and avocados.
