Description
A delicious spread made with coarsely chopped ham and a tangy mix of mayo, mustard, and spices.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb. coarsely chopped ham
- 2/3 cup mayo
- 2 T Dijon mustard
- 1 T horseradish
- 2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tsp. Green Tabasco Sauce (or other hot sauce of your choice)
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onion or green onion
- 1/2 cup finely chopped celery (about one large stalk of celery)
- 1 T fresh-squeezed lemon juice
Instructions
- Whether you are using leftover ham or a ham steak, trim ham well if there is any visible fat or rind.
- Then cut the ham into small cubes and add to the food processor with the steel blade.
- I only buzz the ham cubes a few times, until ham is in small, uniform size pieces. (Be careful not to buzz too much; you want it to stay slightly chunky.)
- Chop up the onion and celery, or I recommend using green onion if you’re going to be storing your ham in the fridge for a few days.
- Remove ham from the food processor into a bowl and add mayo, Dijon mustard, horseradish, Worcestershire sauce, Green Tabasco, chopped onion or green onion, chopped celery, and fresh squeezed lemon juice.
- Stir ingredients together until they are all combined.
- (You can also add the other ingredients to the food process and pulse a few times, but I like to keep the texture of the deviled ham a bit chunky, so I prefer mixing it in a bowl.)
- Serve Deviled Ham Spread as a filling for Low-Carb Pita Bread, stuffed into celery, as an appetizer inside cucumber slices, or with low-carb crackers.
- This will keep in the fridge for at least a week. (It probably lasts longer than that but I haven’t ever managed to have any left after a week to see how much longer it will stay good!)
Notes
- This spread is versatile and can be used in various dishes.
- Keep refrigerated and consume within a week for optimal freshness.
