This is an easy and pretty salad. We have this for several of our get togethers through out the year.

quick, easy, attractive, with meat included it becomes a full meal...I substitute leafy lettuce for the iceberg, making it much more nutritious. using read leafy lettuce also is great, giving it beautiful color. Even the kids will eat it.[after I remove the onions, which Dad eats.

I took this to a potluck dinner, everyone really enjoyed it. Before dinner started, I noticed that the host got out some ranch dressing and put it by my salad (thinking it would be needed), about 1/2 through dinner, the dressing made it's way back into the fridge.

This sald is so yummy, I enjoy it every time I make it! I do make a couple of substitutions though. Instead of ham I used crispy bacon and for the dressing I mix up ranch dressing (from the packets) and spread that overtop. I also put in some sliced hard boiled egg too!

This salad is fantastic! I did a few things different than the recipe. I used a very think layer of onion, I doubled the recipe for the dressing, and I cooked a package of bacon(well done)to crumble on top of the salad. I made two bowls and they disappeared within a day in my house.

Made this for a BBQ and came how with an empty bowl--prefer the ham chunks to bacon-more substance.

I made this recipe for a family Easter dinner. It was great! I appreciated that I could make it the night before. I used bacon pieces instead of the ham - love it!
