Potato Salad with Ham and Peas is a hearty and flavorful dish rooted in comfort food traditions, often seen in Southern and European cuisines. This salad combines tender boiled potatoes, diced ham, and sweet peas, blended with a creamy dressing typically made from mayonnaise, mustard, and seasonings. Some versions include boiled eggs or fresh herbs for added texture and flavor. The dish is a satisfying source of protein from the ham and eggs, paired with fiber and essential nutrients from the peas and potatoes. While the potatoes provide energy-boosting carbohydrates and the peas contribute vitamins like A and C, the creamy dressing and processed ham may add significant amounts of saturated fat and sodium. For a healthier option, consider using lean ham, Greek yogurt in place of mayonnaise, or adding fresh vegetables for extra crunch and nutrients. This versatile dish is perfect for picnics, potlucks, or weeknight meals.
