- 0.5 cup celery
- 0.25 cup red onion
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon salt

Directions
Step 1
Begin by hard-boiling the eggs. Place the eggs in a pot and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat and let simmer for 10 minutes.
Step 2
Once done, drain the hot water and transfer the eggs into a bowl of ice-cold water. Let them sit for 5 minutes to cool before peeling.
Step 3
Peel the eggs and chop them into bite-sized pieces. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
Step 4
Finely dice the cooked ham, celery, and red onion. Add them to the bowl with the eggs.
Step 5
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well blended.
Step 6
Pour the dressing over the eggs, ham, and vegetables. Gently fold everything together with a spatula, ensuring the ingredients are evenly coated.
Step 7
Chop the fresh parsley and add it to the salad for a burst of freshness. Mix gently one last time.
Step 8
Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
Step 9
Serve the ham and egg salad chilled. Enjoy as a sandwich filling, in a wrap, or as a side dish on its own.
