HAM AND FRUIT SALAD

Ham and Fruit Salad image

So refreshing and loaded with fresh fruit flavors. Ready in minutes. A quick and healthy lunch or great addition to your brunch table. Has a very colorful presentation. The recipe is also very interchangeable. You can exchange ham (I use black forest ham) for chicken or turkey and use a mixture of berries like raspberries blue berries and strawberries. If you prefer a different type of cheese use it.
