Start by dicing the cooked ham and cooked chicken breast into small, bite-sized pieces and place them into a large mixing bowl.
Chop the dill pickles into small cubes and add them to the bowl with the meats.
Finely dice the red onion and add it to the mixture.
In a separate smaller bowl, prepare the dressing by combining the Whole30 compliant mayonnaise and apple cider vinegar. Mix until well-blended and creamy.
Pour the mayonnaise and vinegar dressing over the meat and pickle mixture in the large bowl.
Toss the ingredients together until everything is evenly coated with the dressing.
Chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the salad.
Season the Fleischsalat with salt and black pepper, then toss everything together one more time to ensure even distribution of the seasoning.
Cover the salad and let it refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve cold as a side dish or a light lunch, garnished with additional fresh parsley if desired.
