APPLE HAM SALAD



Apple Ham Salad image

This is a really delicious salad. Great way of using up apples and that last bit of ham in the fridge. It was adapted from The Best of Country Cooking. Cooking time is time spent in the fridge. You may also want to add a finely minced garlic clove.

Categories     Ham

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 cups chopped up apples (I've used NZ Beauty)
1 cup ham (I buy the sausage/ham ends at the Deli for this purpose. Cheaper but just as good)
2 tablespoons green onions, chopped
3 tablespoons oil
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Mix everything together with salt and pepper to taste and chill for about 1 hour.
  • Eat.
  • If you like, you may double the oil and vinegar amount.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Use firm, crisp apples that hold their shape when cooked, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Pink Lady.
  • Slice the apples evenly: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcook the apples: They should be tender but still have a slight crunch.
  • Use high-quality ham: Deli ham is fine, but if you can find a good smoked ham, it will add a lot of flavor to the salad.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different ingredients: You can add celery, walnuts, grapes, or even shredded cheese to the salad.

Conclusion:

Apple and ham salad is a classic dish that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With its sweet and savory flavors, apple and ham salad is a dish that everyone will enjoy.
