If loving these delicious little ham-wrapped cream cheese-blanketed pickle morsels makes me uncool...then I am supremely uncool. And I am absolutely okay with that. I've been eating these pickle roll-ups for most of my life, and I'm not sure if they're just a Midwestern thing or if everyone already knows about them, but I just can't keep the recipe to myself. Not that there's really a recipe involved -- it's just a pickle, wrapped in cream cheese, wrapped in ham. That's it. The only bad thing about them, I guess, is that they're dangerously, deliciously addictive.
Pickle Roll-ups
1 10-ounce package sliced ham
1 8-ounce container spreadable cream cheese
Refrigerated whole pickles
On a work surface, lay out two slices of ham so that they overlap in the middle. Spread with an even layer of cream cheese. Place a pickle on the top edge of the ham, then roll the ham around the pickle. Repeat as desired. Cut into slices and refrigerate until serving.
These are one of my all-time favorite snacks. Love them!
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of this before but I love everything about it. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm so curious about these! Everyone always raves about them but.. I'm scared! haha I just need to give them a try!
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting this.This is awesome!!
ReplyDeleteI am not a pickle eater (I really hate them), but my mom used to make these with green olives instead of the pickles. Those, I am addicted to. I make them for my kid, but then he saw yours and had me make them and likes them even better. Sigh. I wish I liked pickles.
ReplyDeletehave been making these forever-men seem to crave them-but I add horseradish and black pepper to the cream cheese-use krakus ham-only I slice per pickle-and I use vlasic extra spicy kosher dills.
