Description
Quick, savory keto‑friendly roll‑ups made with thinly sliced hard salami and creamy cream cheese—perfect for low‑carb snacking without cooking.
Ingredients
- 12–14 ounces thinly sliced hard salami (about 20–25 slices)
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons chopped chives or green onions (optional)
- 1–2 tablespoons finely chopped pickled jalapeños or peppers (optional)
Instructions
- Allow the cream cheese to soften at room temperature to make spreading easier.
- Lay one slice of salami flat on a cutting board or plate.
- Spread a thin layer of cream cheese evenly over the salami slice.
- If using, sprinkle chopped chives/green onions and/or jalapeños on top of the cream cheese.
- Roll the salami slice tightly around the cream cheese filling.
- Secure with a toothpick if preferred.
- Repeat for all slices until done.
- Chill the roll‑ups for at least 30 minutes so they firm up before serving.
Notes
- Mix garlic powder or onion powder into the cream cheese for extra flavor.
- Use flavored cream cheese (herb, pepper) for added seasoning without extra steps.
- Create “pinwheels” by layering several slices, rolling, chilling, and slicing into spirals.
- Add thin cucumber sticks inside the roll for a fresh crunch.
