Italian Rollups

"This is a quick appetizer that is always a hit. I like to serve it for summer pool parties along with fresh tomato bruschetta and crispy baguette slices."

 

• Ready In: 2hrs 15mins
• Ingredients: 3
• Serves: 8-10

ingredients

• 2 (6 ounce) packages of thinly sliced italian salami (or Mortadella)
• 1 (8 ounce) container chive & onion cream cheese
• romaine lettuce leaf

directions

1. Separate salami slices and then overlap on a cutting board to form an approximately 9x13" rectangle. I like to alternate rows of salami and mortadella.
2. Soften cream cheese in microwave for 20 seconds, stir, and microwave for additional 15-20 seconds until soft and very spreadable.
3. Spread cream cheese over salami evenly. Place lettuce on top of cream cheese in a single layer.
4. Beginning at the wide end of the triangle, carefully roll tightly, like a jellyroll.
5. Refrigerate at least 2 hours. Slice into 1" pieces, place upright on a platter and serve.
