Ingredients

  • 2 Old El Paso Restaurant Style Grande flour tortillas (approx. 11.5"-12" in diameter)
  • Approx. 8 oz Philadelphia Chive & Onion Cream Cheese Spread
  • 14 thin-cut slices Genoa salami (or deli meat of choice—see Note 1 below)
  • 10 petite dill pickles (I love Milwaukee's Petite Dill Pickles.)

Instructions

  • Spread half of the chive and onion cream cheese (approx. 4 oz) on one tortilla.

  • Place a layer of thinly-sliced salami (or other deli meat of choice) to cover the cream cheese.

  • Line up 5 petite dill pickles about 1/4 of the way into the tortilla. Cut off the rounded edge of the tortilla. Add a little bit of extra cream cheese to both ends of the tortilla (to secure the parts where you start and end rolling).

  • Roll up the tortilla! Cut off the ends that lack filling, and then cut the rest of the log into small discs. I cut the roll-ups so each one is about ½ - ¾ inch wide, and I get about 14 out of each tortilla.

  • Repeat the same steps for the second tortilla. Serve the roll-ups right away, or store them in the fridge until ready to eat. (See Note 2 below)

Notes from the Happy To Be Here Kitchen

Note 1. Other ingredient options. Instead of genoa salami, you can also make these roll-ups using ham or any other deli meat you prefer. I would suggest using very thin slices of whichever meat you choose. Or, of course, you can skip the meat altogether.
Also, if you're looking to spice these pinwheels up a bit, you can mix some jalapeno cream cheese in with the chive and onion cheese.
Note 2. Fresh Roll-Ups. If possible, I recommend making these roll-ups the same day as you are going to serve them. The tortillas tend to become a little bit soggy/mushy when stored in the fridge overnight. I think these are at their best when they are fresh. Since the roll-ups don't take long to put together, I always make them the same day.
