These Ham and Cheese Tortilla Roll-Ups are a delightful and easy-to-make appetizer or snack, perfect for any occasion.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, light mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and chopped fresh parsley until smooth.
Ensure the cream cheese is softened to make mixing easier and achieve a smooth consistency.
Lay out the flour tortillas on a clean surface.
Use fresh tortillas to prevent cracking when rolling.
Spread a thin, even layer of the cream cheese mixture over each tortilla.
Leave a small border around the edges to prevent the filling from spilling out.
Place slices of ham over the cream cheese layer, covering the tortilla.
Overlap the ham slices slightly to ensure full coverage.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the ham.
Use freshly shredded cheese for the best flavor and texture.
Roll up each tortilla tightly, ensuring the filling stays inside.
Roll slowly and evenly to create a compact roll.
Wrap each roll securely in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Chilling helps the roll-ups firm up, making them easier to slice.
When ready to serve, slice each roll-up into 1/2-inch pieces and arrange on a serving plate.
Use a sharp knife to make clean cuts and maintain the roll-ups' shape.
