1/4 cup(s) mayonaisse, (I use Hellman's)
1/4 cup(s) pepper jelly
2 - stalks celery
1/4 cup(s) onion, diced

Steps:

  • Cut up ham into roughly 1" x 1" chunks and place all ingredients in food processor. Pulse slowly so as not to end up with mush. It should be well mixed but still a little chunky. This is one if those recipes you can customize however you like. You could leave out the onion or celery or both and you can adjust the mayo and pepper jelly too if you want it more moist etc....

  • Use a flavorful dressing. The dressing is what will really bring the salad together. Use a dressing that is sweet, spicy, and tangy. You can use a store-bought dressing or make your own.
  • Add your favorite mix-ins. You can add all sorts of mix-ins to your ham salad, such as chopped vegetables, fruit, nuts, and cheese. Get creative and experiment until you find a combination that you love.
