I was looking through my fridge and realized that I had some fresh cherries that I needed to use up. What to do, what to do? I decided to pair it with ham that I also needed to use up. I had ham steaks, you can use sliced deli ham as well. Just don't cut it up, layer it on. You could also use dried cherries or frozen for this sandwich. I like the peppery arugula against the sweet cherries. Ingredients:
1/4 cup fresh cherries, stemmed pitted and coarsely chopped |
1 tablespoon whole grain dijon mustard or 1/2 tablespoon dijon mustard |
1 tablespoon green onion, chopped |
1 tablespoon mayonnaise |
kosher salt |
fresh ground black pepper |
2 ounces ham (i used diced ham steak, but thinly sliced deli ham is fine too) |
2 slices bread |
1/4 cup baby arugula |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine cherries, mustard, green onion, and mayonnaise; season with a pinch of salt and a grind or two of pepper.
2. If using diced ham steak, stir it into the sandwich spread to coat.
3. If using sliced deli ham, do nothing.
4. To assemble: Place mixture on a slice of bread, top with arugula and close bread (ham steak).
5. For sliced deli ham: Spread mixture on two slices of bread, layer in ham, and a handful of arugula; close sandwich.
