Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 slices of salami (thinly sliced)
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard (or your favorite mustard)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill or parsley, chopped (optional)
  • 12 pickle spears (or small pickles, optional)
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder (optional)

Ingredient Highlights

  • Salami: The star of the show, salami provides a rich, savory flavor and is a great base for the roll-ups.
  • Cream Cheese: Cream cheese gives the filling a smooth, creamy texture and balances the saltiness of the salami.
  • Mustard: Adds a tangy kick that complements the richness of the salami and cream cheese.
  • Pickles: Adding a pickle spear in the middle adds crunch and a burst of tanginess that enhances the flavor.

Instructions

Prepare the Roll-Ups:

  1. Spread the Cream Cheese: In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with the Dijon mustard and garlic powder (if using). Stir until smooth.
  2. Assemble the Roll-Ups: Lay a slice of salami flat on a clean surface. Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture evenly across the salami slice.
  3. Add the Pickle (Optional): Place a pickle spear (or a small pickle) in the center of the salami slice.
  4. Roll the Salami: Carefully roll up the salami around the cream cheese and pickle, ensuring the filling stays inside.
  5. Garnish (Optional): Garnish the roll-up with fresh chopped dill or parsley for added flavor and color.

Serve:

  1. Chill and Serve: For best flavor, refrigerate the roll-ups for about 10 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve immediately or keep chilled until ready to enjoy.
