Did you grow up eating Deviled Ham? You know the stuff in the little cans? Well, I thought my devilish days were over, but today I’ve got a little surprise for you: Vegan Deviled Ham Spread. It’s even better and cheaper than the little cans.
I didn’t eat deviled ham as a child. We couldn’t afford it then. I did eat it as a young adult. I remember thinking it was pretty good stuff. I’m just being honest here. I wasn’t a big fan of ham. It was at our family dinner each Easter, but it wast my jam. But for some reason pureed and served in a can with a red devil holding a pitchfork on the front, I liked it.
Maybe this is proof there’s a little bit of the devilishness in us all! 🙂
This vegan deviled ham spread is pretty easy to make – only a few ingredients!
How to Make Vegan Deviled Ham Spread
Were you worried this might be difficult to make? Worry no more, because with only a few ingredients and a food processor, you’ve got this! If you don’t have a food processor, a blender should work too.
Simply put some Spicy Roasted Chickpeas (see the link in the recipe) in a food processor along with some sun-dried tomatoes. After pulsing those together, add the rest of the ingredients, pulse again and voila! You are ready to start spreading on sandwiches.
See? I told you that was easy!
Obviously I love making vegan versions of traditionally meat-based sandwiches. For example, we have a Vegan Tuna Salad and even a Vegan Egg Salad.
We love serving this Vegan Deviled Ham Spread on sandwiches, spreading a nice, thick layer over the bottom slice of bread, topping that with some lettuce and other goodies, like sliced green onions and tomatoes.
You can also serve this as an appetizer, by toasting some sliced baguette pieces and spreading dollops of this vegan deviled ham spread over the top. Place those on a platter and watch your guests go to town!
We hope you love this recipe for vegan deviled ham spread as much as we do! If you decide to make the recipe, snap a photo and share it using #namelymarly on Instagram. We love seeing your photos!

Add a bit of beet root powder or shaved beet to the mayo,onion,mustard,liquid smoke,garlic powder and chili pepper blend set aside pulse chickpea and dried tomatoes mix in until desired texture is achieved
Marly
That’s a great idea Harriette! Adding a little beet to this mixture would add a little more color and flavor too!
