We enjoy using leftover ham for salads, egg dishes, and other meals. This makes a healthy dinner for two. It's ideal for low-carb diets. Garnish with olives, tomato, and other favorites such as radish or peperoncini (mild yellow peppers called 'friggitello' in Italy), etc.

This was delicious but I did adjust the measurements according to our tastes. I can't say that I really 'measured' anything but I did use less celery and onion than called for and 1/2 of the rosemary as it can be strong for us. Also I wanted to serve this on sandwiches so I did not use the lettuce leaves but I did drizzled the ham salad w/ ranch dressing before serving which gave this a nice extra layer of flavor. I'm used to making my ham salad w/ only ham relish pepper and mayo so this was def a nice change and one I will be making again YUM! Thanks for sharing.:) Read More

I thought the proportions of celery and onion were too much for the 8 ounces of meat. I won't make it again. Read More

It was far too salty, perhaps because I used pre-packaged Hormel diced ham and a ranch dressing mix? Next time I’ll try fresh deli ham and omit the ranch dressing next time. My fault? Read More
