Ingredients
- 8 slices of deli ham or turkey (thinly sliced)
- 8 slices of Swiss or cheddar cheese (thinly sliced)
- 8 dill pickle spears (or baby dill pickles)
- 4 tbsp cream cheese, softened (optional, for spreading)
Instructions
- Prep the Ingredients:
- Pat the pickle spears dry with a paper towel to prevent sogginess.
- Lay out the deli ham or turkey slices on a clean surface.
- Assemble the “Rolls”:
- If using cream cheese, spread a thin layer over each slice of meat. This helps the cheese stick and adds creaminess.
- Place a slice of cheese on top of each piece of ham or turkey.
- Wrap the Pickle:
- Lay a pickle spear at one end of the meat and cheese slice. Roll it up tightly to enclose the pickle completely.
- Slice and Serve:
- Use a sharp knife to slice each roll into 3–4 bite-sized pieces.
- Arrange the pieces on a platter for serving.
Optional Variations
- Add a Crunch: Include a strip of crispy bacon or a crunchy veggie like a carrot stick for extra texture.
- Flavor Boost: Spread mustard, ranch dressing, or horseradish on the meat for a tangy kick.
- Swap Ingredients: Use roasted turkey or smoked chicken for a different flavor.
