- 2 large hard-cooked eggs, finely chopped
- ⅓ cup finely chopped celery
- ¼ cup spicy brown mustard
- 3 tablespoons dill pickle relish
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

- 2 cups chopped butter lettuce
Instructions
- In the work bowl of a food processor, pulse ham until finely ground.
- In a large bowl, combine ham, mayonnaise, eggs, celery, mustard, pickle relish, and pepper, stirring to blend.
- Using a 3-tablespoon levered scoop to portion evenly, divide ham mixture among bread slices, spreading to cover in a thick layer. Top ham layer of 5 bread slices with a layer of lettuce. Place remaining bread slices atop lettuce, ham side down.
