Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. In a small mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, Cheddar, pimiento, Baby Bam or Essence, and hot sauce, if using, and stir well to combine.
  2. On a cutting board, lay the 2 tortillas flat. Using the rubber spatula, divide the cheesy filling evenly between the 2 tortillas. Spread the filling to within 1/2-inch from the edges of the tortillas.
  3. Lay 2 slices of ham over the filling. Using clean fingers, roll each tortilla into a cylinder shape, rolling as tightly as you can. Using a chef’s knife, cut each cylinder into 1/2-inch slices, or pinwheels. Serve immediately.
  4. Baby Bam Seasoning:
  5. 3 tablespoons paprika
  6. 2 tablespoons salt
  7. 2 tablespoons dried parsley
  8. 2 teaspoons onion powder
  9. 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  10. 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  11. 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  12. 1 teaspoon dried basil
  13. 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  14. 1/2 teaspoon celery salt
  15. Here's something to season your foods, like the grown-ups do with Emeril's Original Essence. Add another dimension by sprinkling it into everything, from soups and sauces to pizza and hamburger patties. You fearless bammers out there can kick this up a notch by adding cayenne, to taste. (I'd start with about 1/4 teaspoon, and then take it from there.)
  16. Combine all the ingredients in a mixing bowl and stir well to combine with a wooden spoon.
  17. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
  18. Yield: about 3/4 cup
  19. Emeril's ESSENCE Creole Seasoning (also referred to as Bayou Blast):
  20. 2 1/2 tablespoons paprika
  21. 2 tablespoons salt
  22. 2 tablespoons garlic powder
  23. 1 tablespoon black pepper
  24. 1 tablespoon onion powder
  25. 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
  26. 1 tablespoon dried oregano
  27. 1 tablespoon dried thyme
  28. Combine all ingredients thoroughly.
  29. Yield: 2/3 cup
