Ham and Egg Salad

I decided to make carrots the nutritional feature of this salad.
For information on carrots go to this link CARROTS .
This link is full of the weight control diet facts about carrots and their nutritional value
One of my favourite mustard is the one above you can make just what you need from the powder.

I have decided that we are not eating enough salad so we are going to have 1 or 2 salads per week so lots more posts here.
This Ham and Egg salad could be a starter or like we had, a full meal.
Ingredients
I washed,peeled and prepared Chinese leaves, tomato, cucumber, spring onions, radish, grated carrot, stuffed green olives and cooked green beans.
I arranged these on the plate to make a pattern, I always make patterns or abstract designs and I topped it with slices of good quality sliced ham and boiled free range eggs.
I did not do a dressing so it was very healthy.
Serve with crusty bread, mustard for the ham such as hot English mustard.

It was really tasty for a warm day.
Vegetarians leave out the ham and add some cottage cheese.
If you are on a weight control diet this Ham and Egg Salad recipe would provide you with roughage,minerals, vitamins and protein. I would recommend that you remove all fat from the ham. I always do. I have never liked fat.
