Ham Salad Puffs

This is such a busy time of the year, we are very busy entertaining or being invited to other events. Sometimes we are asked to bring  little Holiday Goodies. I often times have left over ham in the freezer and this is a great way to use it, other than in my beans or a casserole.

  6. Happy New Year Miz Helen!

    The Ham Puffs recipe sounds great! I have never made a ham salad either- we don't eat much ham because so many times it is very salty. This recipe makes me want to try some again though!
    The salad would be good on endive spears, and what about filling cherry tomatoes with it? Yum!

  7. What a neat recipe. I'm always tired of anything remotely sweet about December 26th. I think I'll give these a whirl. I have leftover ham, too! Thanks for a great recipe.

  17. Thanks for the Ham Salad recipe. I love your Puffs recipe. I made them last week and filled them with Lemon Curd, now I'll try the Ham Salad.

    Wishing you a wonderful 2011.

  18. Good idea for filling cream puffs, other than with cream, which I confess I'd limited them to. Egg salad, chicken salad or even tuna salad would also be great in there.

  19. i just picked up a big ham at the grocery, on a whim...thank goodness i have this for some of my leftovers! thank you for sharing with tuesday night supper club and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

  20. I just made your cream puffs and they are GREAT. I will be posting them on my blog soon. I have a question about making them savory though. We do not eat pork in our house, do you have any other suggestions for a savory filling? Thanks!

  21. Hi Elsa,
    I am so glad you ask the question about other options for the Savory Filling. You can use this exact same recipe and substitute the ham with ground chicken, or turkey.I would leave out the mustard for the chicken or turkey. A good Tuna Salad or a cream cheese, cucumber and dill mix. Yum...I need to go back to the kitchen. Please let me know what you come with. Thanks for trying the recipe.
