Best Ham And Swiss Crepes With Chopped Salad Recipes

HAM AND SWISS LAYERED SALAD

Steps:

• For dressing, mix first five ingredients. In a 3-qt. or larger glass bowl, layer spinach, eggs, ham, lettuce, peas, if desired, and onion. Spread with dressing. Sprinkle with cheese and bacon. Refrigerate, covered, until serving.

HAM AND CHEESE CREPES

Steps:

• Add flour, milk, eggs, and melted butter to a blender and process until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Set batter aside for at least 20 minutes.
• Heat 1 teaspoon butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook onions, stirring occasionally, until they start to turn golden brown, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
• Coat a crepe pan or nonstick skillet over medium heat with about 1 teaspoon of the melted butter. Ladle about 1/4 cup batter into the pan, swirling the pan to thinly coat the entire bottom. Cook until small brown spots appear on the bottom of the crepe, about 2 minutes.
• Loosen crepe carefully from the pan using a spatula and gently flip to brown the other side, 1 to 2 minutes more. Slide crepe onto a plate. Repeat with remaining batter, buttering the pan as needed and stacking crepes between pieces of parchment or waxed paper.
• Assemble crepes, one at a time, in the still-warm pan; spread some mustard over one half, cover mustard with some ham slices, and top with Gruyere cheese. Fold the other side over the filling, pressing down slightly, and heat briefly just until the cheese starts to melt. Fold crepe in half again. Each finished crepe should end up about 1/4 the size of the original.

HAM SALAD

Steps:

• Whisk the mayonnaise and mustard together in a large bowl. Pulse the ham and pickles in a food processor until finely chopped but not pureed. Add the ham mixture, pickle juice, celery, onions and celery leaves to the mayonnaise mixture, and stir. Taste; if the salad seems dry (it should be spreadable), add more mayonnaise and/or pickling liquid. Serve as is or on sandwiches.

SARASOTA'S HAM AND SWISS CHEESE SALAD

Steps:

• Salad -- Just rough chop the lettuce, add the ham, swiss cheese, whole olives and Durkee onions (more or less depending on what you like. I save some for the top as well as a garnish. Now if you can't find the Durkee fried onions, just use a regular white onion. I just like the crunch the Durkee onions gives the salad. I like to lightly season with salt and pepper and then drizzle your favorite dressing over the top and toss well. I like to serve it with Recipe #413903. The creamy mustard dressing goes perfect with this. You can also use a ranch dressing or your favorite vinaigrette.
• It is a simple classic recipe, but I absolutely love it. And feel free to add more or less ingredients as needed. ENJOY!
