You know longer have to choose between ham salad and egg salad, you can have them both at the same time. This mix is super simple and oh so tasty.

Of course we think to make it most frequently after our Easter celebration. We tend to have a lot of hard boiled eggs and leftover ham then.

So this is the perfect way to use both at the same time. You can enjoy it on bread as a sandwich, on crackers as a snack, or pile it on lettuce for a green salad.

The dressing has the flavors we love from deviled eggs, hence the name deviled ham and egg salad. Then you just stir in chopped ham and eggs.

How do you serve ham and egg salad?

Ham and egg salad should be served cold. It shouldn’t sit at room temperature for more than 2 hours.
