If you’ve got leftover holiday ham—or even a few deli slices—you’re just minutes away from a refreshing, protein-packed dish that’s far from ordinary. This Ham Salad with a Delicious Twist takes the classic chopped ham spread and elevates it with bright lemon, crisp celery, sweet apples, and a hint of Dijon mustard for depth.
It’s creamy but not heavy, savory with a touch of sweetness, and perfect piled high on croissants, stuffed into lettuce cups, or served with crackers for an easy lunch that feels special.
Why This Ham Salad Stands Out
- 🥩 Uses leftover ham—zero waste, maximum flavor
- 🍎 Apple + lemon = bright, fresh contrast to rich ham
- 🥣 Ready in 10 minutes—no cooking required
- 💛 Crowd-pleasing—great for picnics, brunch, or meal prep
- 🌿 Easily customizable—add heat, herbs, or crunch!
