Almond Ham Roll Ups

Easy and a great crowd pleaser. This a good standby recipe for those surprise guests that show up a tad early. Great for Sunday football games as the guys love these. I often will make these and freeze on a parchment line cookie sheet until set. Place in ziploc freezer bags and thaw out as many as you need when you want. These never last longer than a month in my freezer.
