DELI SANDWICH SPREAD / HAM SALAD

Steps:

• Any type of lunch meat may be used for this spread. I use bologna, boiled ham or a combination of both.
• run meat through grinder with the fine blade, or use a food processor and process until very fine.
• Boil eggs in advance and allow to chill for at least 20 minutes.
• Combine mayonnaise (or Miracle Whip), relish, onion, salt, pepper and eggs.
• Stir in ground meat to combine.
• Chill for at least one hour prior to serving.
• (My mom tipped me off that the way that they were able to get the grocery store version of this dish to look so beautiful, pink and fresh is that they add beet juice to it! So I add a bit of red food coloring if I am serving it on a buffet so that it looks more appealing.
• Cooking time listed is chill time.

HAM SALAD SPREAD OR HAM SALAD WRAPS

Steps:

• Ham Salad Spread:.
• In a food processor, combine the ham, celery, onion, and pickles or pickle relish. Pulse until minced; transfer to a bowl. Mix in mayonnaise until well-moistened, along with sweet pickle juice, if using. Add pepper, to taste, and stir in the diced hard-cooked egg. Arrange lettuce on rolls; fill with the ham salad. Serve with chips or French fries and pickle slices or sliced tomatoes.
• Ham Salad Wraps:.
• In bowl, beat cream cheese with salad dressing until smooth. Beat in honey mustard.
• Stir in corn and ham spread. Soften the corn tortillas by wrapping them in microwave safe paper towel. Microwave on high power for 10 seconds per tortilla. Unwrap and spread with ham mixture. Roll up and cut in half. Serve immediately, or wrap and freeze. To thaw, let thaw in refrigerator overnight, or place in insulated lunchboxes with frozen gel pack.
• If you aren't going to freeze the sandwiches, you can include other vegetables in this filling, like chopped green or red bell pepper, shredded carrots, baby peas, sliced summer squash, or chopped tomatoes.
