I love ham salad spread on a sandwich or with crackers. I also know that it's loaded with calories, so this is a lightened up version of deli variety. The lack of moistness is made up for by the addition of seasoned vinegar. You can use regular or wine vinegar instead. Some versions use sweet relish, I prefer the dill. You could also chop up your own pickles instead of using relish. Your favorite mustard is fine, too. This version has more onion and celery in proportion to ham.
