amish ham salad
When it comes to ham salad this is top of the list for me....I love this version and ever since I tried some at a local Amish store I had to learn how to make it. It is a simple recipe and can be seasoned up if you want. I have altered a recipe I found in an Amish newspaper and my main addition is the horsey sauce, which I love. My 16 yr old nephew Rhyan just loved his ham salad sammie today. I hope you enjoy it too.

Step 1Shredding the baby swiss cheese, chop the ham and rinse/drain the sauerkraut really well. I usually squeeze the kraut with my hands to get the most liquid out as possible. -
Step 2Add all your ingredients in a bowl and stir together till well combined.

Step 3This is the horsey sauce that I use. It most certainly has a bite to it.
