Weight Watchers Friendly Ham Salad - 2 SmartPoints
Ham salad is one of my favorite ways to use up the leftover bits from a baked ham.
It makes a great sandwich filling for rye bread or small rolls or a tasty topping for crackers and cucumber slices, which is the way I enjoyed it for lunch today.
Skinny Ham Salad Spread
Recipe Notes
The inspiration for this skinny ham salad recipe comes from The Fannie Farmer Cookbook (affiliate link), my go-to cookbook when I'm seeking old-fashioned comfort.
I lightened it up by using a combination of light mayonnaise and non-fat Greek yogurt in place of the full fat mayo called for, with good results.
