Peel the hard-boiled eggs and chop them into small, bite-sized pieces. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
Dice the cooked ham into small cubes and add it to the bowl with the eggs.
Finely chop the dill pickles and add them to the bowl.
In a separate small bowl, combine the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard. Stir until smooth and fully combined.
Pour the mayonnaise and mustard mixture over the chopped eggs, ham, and pickles. Stir gently to evenly coat the ingredients.
Add the chopped parsley (if using), salt, and black pepper. Mix well to incorporate the seasoning evenly.
Taste the mixture and adjust the seasoning as needed by adding more salt, pepper, or pickles for tanginess.
Lay out the bread slices. Add a leafy green to one side of each sandwich for extra crunch, if desired.
Spoon a generous portion of the ham pickle egg salad mixture onto 4 of the bread slices. Spread it evenly to cover the bread.
Top with the remaining bread slices to complete the sandwiches.
Slice each sandwich in half and serve immediately, or wrap them tightly to enjoy later.
