You can't eat just one! These sandwiches are a favorite at our casual family gatherings and they look pretty. Huey attended an event where this type of sandwich was served and came home raving about them. So, this is my version. He loves them, and apparently, so does everyone else. For the bread, make the sandwich with all white bread, all whole wheat bread, or mix and match the two.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

These party ham and egg salad sandwiches are simple crustless sandwiches with a fancy feel. The salty ham salad is a wonderful complement to the milder egg salad. Serve them at brunch, a tea party, a baby or bridal shower, or a holiday party.

How To Make party ham and egg salad sandwiches

Test Kitchen Tips

We put the ham and hard-boiled eggs through a food process to easily chop them.

Step 1

HAM SALAD: Drain liquid from canned ham and place into a bowl. Separate, and smash with a fork.

Step 2

Add the pickle relish, celery, and black pepper. Increase or decrease mayonnaise to achieve a smooth spreading consistency while remaining stiff enough to not "run." Refrigerate several hours or overnight to allow the flavors to blend.
Step 3

EGG SALAD: Using a hand grater, grate the hard-boiled eggs into a bowl.
Step 4

Add the black pepper. Increase or decrease the mayonnaise as necessary to achieve a smooth spreading consistency. Place in the refrigerator.
Step 5

ASSEMBLE SANDWICHES: Remove the crusts from the bread.
Step 6

Spread a thin layer of ham salad on one slice of bread.
Step 7

Top with a piece of bread.
Step 8

Spread a thin layer of egg salad on the top piece of bread.
Step 9

Place a piece of bread onto the egg salad.
Step 10

Diagonally slice the sandwich.
