BROCCOLI SALAD WITH HAM
1 bunch fresh broccoli (about 1 pound before trimming)
8 ounces diced ham
4 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 tablespoons granular Splenda or equivalent liquid Splenda
Trim and peel the tough stalks and finely chop the broccoli. Place in a large bowl. Add the ham and cheese. In a small bowl, blend the remaining 3 ingredients. Mix into the broccoli mixture and chill several hours before serving. Season to taste with salt and pepper, if desired, but I usually find that no seasoning is needed.
Makes about 8 servings
Do not freeze

This is basically the same as the Broccoli Crunch Salad, but has ham instead of bacon. It makes a nice main dish salad.
UPDATE: I've increased the star rating for this salad because it has turned out to be one of my favorites. The last time that I made this I added some halved grape tomatoes and they're very nice in it.
