Deviled Ham Sandwich

The classic deviled ham sandwich – a timeless favorite that’s easy to make and packed with flavor.

With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a satisfying snack or light lunch that’s perfect for a quick pick-me-up or a casual gathering with friends.

Ingredients

• 4 slices of bread
• 4 tablespoons of mayonnaise
• 1 cup of chopped cooked ham
• 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh chives (optional)

Instructions

Start by preparing your bread – toast the slices lightly and set them aside. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the chopped ham, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper.

Mix well until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.

Stir in the chopped parsley and chives (if using). To assemble the sandwiches, spread a quarter of the ham mixture onto each toasted bread slice.

Top with another bread slice to create a sandwich.

Cut the sandwiches in half, diagonally or horizontally, depending on your preference. Serve immediately and relish your delicious deviled ham sandwiches!

Notes

For a creamier ham mixture, try using 4.5 or 5 tablespoons of mayonnaise, but be careful not to overpower the other flavors.

If you want a tangier taste, add a little more Dijon mustard.

You can also customize the flavor by adding minced onions or grated cheddar cheese to the ham mixture.

To make the sandwiches more visually appealing, use a cookie cutter to cut out fun shapes from the bread before toasting.

If you’re preparing the sandwiches ahead of time, keep them refrigerated for up to a day and let them come to room temperature before serving.

For a healthier take, try using whole wheat bread and reducing the amount of mayonnaise used.
