This is just a simple appetizer, when you're in a hurry or have unexpected company - you will usually have these ingredients on hand. There are so many variations, as with most roll ups, so be creative! Ingredients:
6 slices smoked ham (if the ham slices are too thin, they will tear when you try to spread on the filling, so ask the deli to slice the ham a little thicker than for sandwiches) |
filling |
3 ounces cream cheese, softened |
2 tablespoons mayonnaise (don’t substitute miracle whip!) |
6 pimento-stuffed green olives, chopped finely |
1/2 teaspoon yellow mustard |
Directions:
1. Mix together the filling ingredients.
2. Spread each ham slice with filling and roll it up tightly.
3. Chill thoroughly before slicing each roll into bite-size pieces.
4. NOTE: You can vary these in so many ways:
5. Omit olives, substitute honey mustard for yellow mustard and use honey ham slices.
6. Omit olives and add grated Swiss, cheddar, or gruyere cheese instead.
7. Use garlic or jalapeno stuffed olives instead of pimento stuffed.
8. Add finely diced pecans.
9. Omit olives and mustard - add some crushed pineapple instead, for a sweet/savory pinwheel.
10. For a sharper flavor, omit olives and add a dash of horseradish to the filling.
11. Replace the filling with a horseradish cheddar cheese spread, adding some diced pecans for a nice crunch.
12. Be as creative as you wish!
