Ham Pasta Salad
This pasta salad made with ham is a southern classic for sure and great for a potluck or church supper any time of year. Very simple, but a true favorite of mine.
If you don't have leftover ham or ham that you've previously frozen, just pick up a ham steak from the meat department, or ask the deli to slice you a 1/4 to 1/2 inch slice of ham. As far as pasta, while elbow macaroni is the most traditional for this one, vary the type of pasta that you use according to what you have on hand. I used farfalle (bow tie) because I had an open box in the pantry, but pretty much any medium cut pasta you favor for pasta salads is fine.
As always with pasta salads, lots of add-ins work well here too of course, so use your favorites. Things like chopped, boiled eggs, sweet or sour chopped pickles or pickle relish, chopped red, orange, green or yellow sweet bell peppers, jalapeno peppers, black or green olives, frozen, thawed peas, or peeled and chopped cucumber, are a few good choices you may enjoy. Here's how to make it.
