Festive salad with ham and croutons

Salad with smoked cheese and ham, perfect for a feast! Taste, ease of preparation. I offer a salad that, in my opinion, is worthy of any holiday table. Smoked cheese gives it a special piquancy. When purchasing, choose quality cheese. I didn’t like the cheese that I bought; it was so smoked and overdried that it more closely resembled fish than cheese. Therefore, it is advisable to take smoked cheese in the form of a braid or blocks. Ham can be replaced with boiled pork. Add mayonnaise and croutons an hour before serving to ensure crunch of the croutons. In any case, the salad turned out (I’ll use a banal word for all delicious dishes, but I can’t find a synonym) delicious.

Anait, what a new, beautiful salad, the ingredients are simple, and the taste is pleasant and the salad is nutritious, I often buy smoked cheese - a braid, it is also called Chechil (is that Anait?), now I know where to use it, otherwise we only have it with drank beer)))

Anahit, I really liked the salad too! In fact, for me, anything with corn is delicious! only it’s better to prepare the crackers yourself, and not from a bag, they are easy to prepare, but there are more benefits, or less harmful ones

Thanks everyone. Irisha, I have never bought crackers, I wrote it as in the recipe. I always cook them myself by baking sliced ​​​​bread in the oven. And breading too, after passing the oven-baked croutons in a meat grinder

Anait, how about some finely chopped red onion and some garlic?... Would it be rude? Or do cilantro and cheese give the dominant taste?
