You can use any meat, but roast beef, pastrami, and ham are favorites. Pat the meat dry, then spread softened cream cheese across the meat, stacked two to four slices deep.
Add the pickle and roll it up. You can cut these fun little roll-ups into bite-sized pieces or serve them whole, and toothpicks also work well for holding them together.
Elevate the classic pickle wrap by adding spicy mustard, jalapeño jelly, pepperoncini, or flavored cream cheese, such as garlic and herb, garden vegetable, or sun-dried tomato.
Switching to sweet pickles also offers a different taste. Whether you stick with the original or try these variations, your guests will enjoy this easy party appetizer.
