Simple Ham Spread

Whether on Ritz crackers or a buttered toasted English muffin, the salty-smokey goodness of ham spread has been a favorite of mine since childhood.

• 1 1/4 lbs cooked ham (diced)
• 1 cup mayonaise
• 1 tbsp white sugar
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
• 1/4 tsp mustard powder
• 1 tbsp cold water (optional)
