This salad is a great make-ahead dish. I made it the night before and it was even better the next day.

I'm not a big fan of ham, but I really liked this salad. The dressing is light and tangy, and the ham is cooked perfectly.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover ham. I always have some leftover after Easter, and this is a great way to use it up.

I've made this salad a few times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The dressing is light and flavorful, and the ham and cheese add a nice touch of protein.
