HAM AND CHEESE SALAD WITH RYE BREAD CROUTONS



Ham and Cheese Salad With Rye Bread Croutons image

This is a fun twist of the sandwich classic, by Grace Parisi for Food and Wine Magazine. She makes this ham salad mixed with crunchy rye bread croutons and little bits of Gruyere cheese. Then she tosses it in a mustardy dressing with celery and chives. Grace likes to wrap the salad in Bibb lettuce leaves for an inside-out sandwich. You may choose to serve any way you'd like. Note: you can prepare the rye croutons in advance.

SALAD CROUTONS



Salad Croutons image

I came up with these croutons because all I could ever find in the store were ones that tasted stale and threatened to break a tooth. We love the blend of the slightly sweet of the bread with the garlic. We've been known to just grab a handful for munching ! They're also great tossed on top of a cup of soup!
