Cut the ham into large chunks and place them in the bowl of your food processor with the blade attachment installed. Use the pulse function to chop the ham to the desired consistency. My preference is about ⅛" chop.
Place 1 cup of the chopped ham into a medium-sized mixing bowl and add the mayonnaise, mustard, and pickle relish. Mix all ingredients together. If the ham salad seems dry, add a touch more mayo.
1 cup finely chopped ham, 3 Tablespoons mayonnaise, 2 teaspoons sweet pickle relish, 1 teaspoon spicy mustard or Dijon mustard
Serve immediately or refrigerate for a few hours before serving.
This recipe will make about 4 sandwiches with a thin layer of ham spread. I do not recommend freezing already prepared ham salad, but the chopped ham without the other ingredients freezes well.
