Ham And Macaroni Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 lb boiled ham or 1/2 lb baked ham
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, diced
2 cups cooked elbow macaroni
1 cup chopped celery
1 small onion, chopped
1/2 cup dill pickle, chopped
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 teaspoons prepared mustard

Preparation

Dice ham into 1/2-inch cubes.
Combine ham and cheese with macaroni, celery, onion and pickle.
Mix mayonnaise and mustard; then stir into macaroni mixture, mixing well.
Chill well until ready to serve, several hours for maximum flavor!
Serve in a lettuce lined bowl, and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
Tip: Elbow macaroni doubles in volume when cooked, so start with 1 cup dry macaroni to yield 2 cups needed for this recipe.
