    We used to make it every Easter with the leftover ham when I was younger, but I haven’t had it in awhile.

    Never had it because it doesn't look appetizing imo. Chicken salad is delicious though.

    Growing up there was a butcher that made ham sausage. It was like summer sausage but made out of ham. It was... so ridiculously good.

    It was always ground bologna sandwiches for us. Only rich folks could afford a holiday ham large enough for there to be leftovers

    If you’re looking for a good way to make broccoli unhealthy but delicious I recommend broccoli salad.

    I just use slivered almonds instead of pine nuts as they are more readily available

    Also always use Duke's mayo. I don't understand people having strong preference for coke or pepsi. But if you are a Hellmann's mayo guy, I don't got anytime for you.

    Looks grody, but I’m sure it tastes fine. Not tempted at all to change my leftover ham tactics to include this though.

    We sold it at a deli I worked at in high school so I tried it a few times. It was decent but I’d never buy or make it when there are so many other delicious ways to prepare ham.

    I bet my wife would love it if she could get past the aesthetics. She orders cooked/tavern ham on white bread with just mayo at any deli we go to. I end up overcomplicating my order to compensate.

    Put it on crackers or bread and it’s pretty much a simple ham sandwich. In general, I don’t like meat chopped like that though. Pulled bbq over chopped. Same with chicken salad, needs some chunkiness.

    With leftover ham, for me it’s usually pizza, ham and eggs, ham delights, fried rice, soup, and sandwiches. All seem like better use than this.

    Nah because you need a food processor, unless you already have one for making chicken salad and egg salad and potato salad at home.

    It's ok to substitute miracle whip for mayo in this sandwich combination. Just not garlic aioli or Hellmann's.

    People in small town Nebraska call it “funeral spread” because it’s commonly served at the meal after a funeral here.

    Can we discuss pear salads in here? The thought of these things makes me queasy.

    Ingredients
    • 2 cans pear halves, drained
    • ½-3/4 cup mayonnaise
    • ⅓ cup shredded cheddar cheese
    • maraschino cherries, optional

    Have a butcher buddy that says the grossest thing you can buy at a deli is ham salad. I guess they most commonly use the ham that is reaching the date they need to pull it from the case, because once you start adding things like mayo in with it, it extends the life of how long they can sell the ham.

    Ham cooked and glazed mixed with bread and butter pickles, celery, mayo, dash of black pepper and a little green onion. Served over rye bread.

    It's a Midwest thing, you wouldn't get it.
