Split bread lengthwise, hollow out each half with a fork, leaving 1/2 inch thick shell. (Save insides to make a crumb topping for a casserole.) Spread mayonnaise or salad dressing over hollow in loaf. Sprinkle parsley over mayonnaise. Blend cream cheese, celery, onion and salt in a bowl; spoon into bread halves, packing down well and leaving a small hollow down center. Quarter pickle lengthwise; roll each quarter inside a double thick slice of ham. Place ham rolls end to end, in center of bottom half of loaf; cover with remaining half of bread. Wrap tightly. Chill. To serve, cut into 16 slices. Garnish with parsley.
