Notes

  • Nutrition facts estimated without bun or crackers
  • How long does ham salad last?
  • Properly stored, it will last up to five days in the refrigerator.
  • Can you freeze prepared ham salad?
  • You can freeze it, as long as it's frozen immediately after preparing, but frankly, I don't recommend it. Because this recipe uses mayonnaise it will most likely separate and not be as appetizing once thawed. Plus here's the deal - this is delicious and tasty, you won't have any problem using it up!
  • A better option is to freeze the ham. Then when you're ready to make it, just unthaw the ham and prepare this recipe.
  • What is the best way to chop the ham?
  • Using your food processor will make quick work of the chopping. Don't just give it a whirl, though. Roughly chop the ham first, then add the meat and pulse it several times until it's the consistency you're looking for.
  • Personally, I LOVE my immersion blender for chopping this ham up. I just toss diced ham in there and give it a few quick pulses and I'm done. It's so quick and easy to clean up too!
