Cold cuts and cream cheese are a staple in our refrigerator, so when I'm not in the mood for bread, I like to make these naked sandwiches, which also make great appetizers. The possible combinations are endless, but these gentlemen are my favorites. You can also make these with a tortilla as the outside layer. Amounts are approximate (play around with it) and listed per roll-up. Ingredients:
1 slice turkey breast |
1/2 tablespoon cream cheese |
1 teaspoon cranberry sauce |
1 slice ham |
1/2 tablespoon cream cheese |
1 teaspoon apricot jam |
1 slice salami |
1/2 teaspoon cream cheese |
1/4 teaspoon minced olives or 1/4 teaspoon pepperoncini pepper |
Directions:
1. For each roll-up, spread the cream cheese as evenly as possible across the slice of meat (but don't be anal about it if it glops up a bit-room temperature cream cheese is ideal).
2. Then spread or sprinkle the other filling on top.
3. Roll it up.
4. Make as many as you want.
5. Eat or serve as is or cut on the horizontal into pinwheels (not recommended for the salami unless you've got a tortilla on the outside).
6. Optional: garnish with toothpicks securing a cranberry for each American, a dried apricot for each Englishman, and an olive for each Italian.
7. Feel free to add additional seasonings: some like the American with a little mayo in it, some like the Englishman with a touch of dijon mustard, and some like the Italian with garlic powder (or an herbed cream cheese)- horseradish might go in there somewhere!
