dill pickle ham roll ups recipe

We love making appetizers for our party celebrations.  This recipe was one that we tried this past Christmas and my husband absolutely loves it.  Very simple to make.

You will need:

• jar of refrigerated whole kosher dill pickles
• 1 pkg of cream cheese
• 1 pkg of ham lunch meat, look for the rectangle shaped one.  It makes rolling easier.

Pat dry your pickles and wipe on the cream cheese.  I say that lightly, it is hard to spread cream cheese onto a pickle.  We actually ended up laying out the piece of ham and putting a big blob of cream cheese onto it, and then rolled the pickle up in it.  Wasn’t very proper but it did the job.  I then placed them on a plate, covered them, and put them in the refrigerator overnight.  The next day I took them out and sliced them up into chunks.  This makes a whole lot of appetizers especially for a large family.
