Ingredients
Scale
Salami Roll-Ups
- 12 slices of salami (thinly sliced)
- 4 ounces of cream cheese (softened)
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 cup sliced black olives
- 1/4 cup roasted red bell peppers (thinly sliced)
- Fresh basil leaves (for garnish)
Instructions
- Soften Cream Cheese: Take the cream cheese out of the fridge and let it soften at room temperature for about 15 minutes to make spreading easier.
- Prepare Cream Cheese Mixture: In a small mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese with dried oregano and garlic powder. Mix until smooth and fully incorporated.
- Arrange Salami Slices: Lay the 12 slices of thinly sliced salami on a clean flat surface or cutting board, making sure they do not overlap to allow easy spreading and rolling.
- Spread Filling: Spread approximately 1 to 2 teaspoons of the seasoned cream cheese mixture evenly onto each slice of salami.
- Add Toppings: On top of the cream cheese layer, place several slices of black olives and roasted red bell peppers for added flavor and texture.
- Roll Up Salami: Carefully roll each salami slice from one end to the other, making sure the filling and toppings remain inside the roll-up.
- Secure Rolls: If desired, insert a toothpick into each roll-up to keep them secure and intact for serving.
- Garnish and Serve: Arrange the roll-ups on a serving platter, garnish with fresh basil leaves for color and aroma, and serve immediately for best taste.
Notes
- Use thinly sliced salami for easier rolling.
- Allow the cream cheese to soften sufficiently to achieve a smooth spread.
- Customize toppings by adding other low-carb vegetables or herbs.
- Keep refrigerated if not serving immediately, but roll-ups are best served fresh.
- To make it vegetarian, substitute salami with a plant-based deli slice.
