Deviled Ham Tea Sandwiches

Deviled Ham Tea Sandwiches

My childhood consisted of deviled ham sandwiches and Ball Park franks (“they plump when you cook em’).  I loved opening up a tin of Underwood Deviled Ham and spreading it all over Wonder Bread.  Talk about salt!  This homemade deviled ham recipe is creamy and just a bit spicy.  Serve it scooped onto lettuce leaves as a light lunch, too. 

INGREDIENTS

2 Cups Finely Chopped Smoked Ham

¼ Cup Mayonnaise

2 Tablespoons Finely Chopped Flat Leaf Parsley

2 Tablespoons Finely Chopped Green Onions

1 Tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce

¼ Teaspoon Hot Sauce of Your Choice

12 Slices Thinly Sliced Sandwich Bread

In a medium bowl mix together ham, mayonnaise, parsley, green onions, Worcestershire sauce and hot sauce.  Cover and chill deviled ham for at least 2 hours.  Divide deviled ham between 6 slices of bread and spread out evenly with a knife.  Top with remaining slices of bread and press each sandwich down lightly.  Remove crusts and cut in halves or quarters.  Transfer to platter and serve immediately or cover platter with a slightly dampened paper towel and plastic wrap – then refrigerate until ready to serve.  Serves 6
