Simple Ham and Pickle Roll Ups

Ingredients

• 8 slices Ham Deli Slices (thinly sliced, preferably from the deli counter)
• 4 oz Whipped Cream Cheese (softened; can use regular cream cheese softened to spreadable consistency)
• 8 spears Dill Pickle Spears (drained and patted dry with a paper towel)

Instructions

1. Gather Ingredients

   Lay out the ham slices, whipped cream cheese, and dill pickle spears on a clean workspace.

   Time: PT2M

2. Soften Cream Cheese

   If using regular cream cheese, let it sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes until spreadable; whipped cream cheese can be used straight from the tub.

   Time: PT5M

3. Dry the Pickles

   Remove the pickle spears from the jar, place them on a paper towel, and gently pat them dry to remove excess brine.

   Time: PT2M

4. Spread Cream Cheese

   Using a butter knife or spatula, spread a thin, even layer of cream cheese onto each ham slice.

   Time: PT5M

5. Add Pickle Spear

   Place one dill pickle spear at one end of the cream‑cheese‑covered ham slice.

   Time: PT2M

6. Roll the Ham

   Starting at the end with the pickle, tightly roll the ham slice around the spear, sealing the edge with a little extra cream cheese if needed.

   Time: PT3M

7. Trim the Ends (Optional)

   Use a sharp knife to trim off the excess ham at the ends for a cleaner bite‑size piece.

   Time: PT2M

8. Slice into Bite‑Size Pieces

   Slice each rolled ham into 1‑inch (2‑cm) sections, cleaning the knife between cuts to keep the slices neat.

   Time: PT3M

9. Arrange on Tray

   Place the pinwheel slices on a serving tray, spacing them evenly.

   Time: PT2M

10. Chill or Serve

    Refrigerate the tray for up to 15 minutes to let the flavors meld, or serve immediately at room temperature.

    Time: PT0M
