Ham goes well with many fruits, as this beautifully colorful salad proves. If you like, substitute fresh pineapple or mango chunks for the orange segments. Or, if you make this in late fall or winter when persimmons and pomegranates are available, try topping the salad with sliced peeled persimmon and a few pomegranate seeds. Add to the southern feeling and serve this salad with minted iced tea.
