LINDA'S HAM SALAD SANDWICH (SANDWICHES) OR FINGER ROLLS
These are a big hit around the holidays when having parties or having baby, graduation and wedding showers! This recipe uses left over ham from a smoked shoulder. The flavor is WONDERFUL, and so GOOD! This is a real treat! My gram always made it for us growing up, as she made us smoked shoulder quite often... I always helped her grind the meat, and that I was the "Big Cheese" getting to do that part LOL... Now I just use my blender, and it works like a charm, as long as you don't overload it. You can use chunks of chopped ham in this recipe, but it's not quite as tasty! Try some of my other delicious sandwiches: Recipe #52284 Recipe #218337 Recipe #52286

HONEYBEE HAM SALAD SANDWICH
The crowd was abuzz at the sight of this striped sandwich at the Bee Tea theme luncheon I hosted. You could substitute chicken or tuna salad for the ham salad. For a large crowd, make a "swarm" of bees and offer several choices. -Sheila Bradshaw, Columbus, Ohio
