Ham and Cream Cheese Roll Ups (3 Ways!)
Back-to-school time can be a uniquely challenging time for parents. There's so much to think about that it's nice to be able to have a few things fall into place easily.
That's why I'm here to inspire you with a fun way to pack lunches for your kids. 
Often, I buy a pound of Boar's Head Ham to last our family Monday through Friday. To keep it interesting from day to day, I use my recipe for ham and cream cheese roll ups with three different flavorings.
By changing up the filling, each day's lunch can be unique.
When it comes to deli meat, I trust Boar's Head for quality products made of the finest ingredients. With such a variety of products that kids love, Boar's Head makes school lunch easier for parents by offering nourishing products that make lunch-packing effortless.
Plus, Boar's Head Meats, Cheeses, Condiments, and Spreads are gluten-free!
You can use any of your favorite Boar's Head Ham varieties for these ham and cream cheese roll up variations. The nice thing about this recipe is that you can get your kids involved with crafting lunch.
They can pick the filling of the day, whether it's green onions, strawberry jam, or Boar's Head Kosher Dill Pickle Spears. 
Did you know? Ham and cream cheese pinwheels with pickles or green onions are a classic Midwestern party food. Ham and cream cheese pinwheels with strawberry jam, on the other hand, are inspired by a Monte Cristo sandwich variation I had from a local Cuban restaurant.
Good recipes come from all over, and they taste even better when made with Boar's Head products.

Cool recipe. Im vegan, so i wouldn't be making this for myself, but I have friends and family who would enjoy these roll ups.
@Gemille Sleweon, You could probably do Tofurkey with vegan cream cheese 😉
These would all be great lunch ideas for my husband and kids. They get tired of sandwiches and these look like a delicious idea.
Oh my God! These look so fantastic delicious! I'm a ham addict! Suddenly I feel hungry... lol!
Your shots looks good. This lunch idea is really great for your family.
These look like they would be a perfect lunch for my kiddos for back to school. Definitely going to be doing this for them!
my mum used to do ham and cheese snacks and oh god, so good! these look so yummy!
At first glimpse I thought you made some sushi. I cannot believe it is that easy to prepare this. People of all age will love this.
This is so mouthwatering perfect as appetizer. I am throwing a family get together this coming weekend. I am definitely adding this to my menu.
I love pickles a lot , unfortunately I am a vegetarian so I will probably use these Kosher Dill Spears in Vegetarian Sushi Rolls or cottage cheese rolls .
That is an awesome snack! I would love to make this for the kids.
My mom made a version of these as a snack when I was a kid and I've been unsuccessful in finding the recipe. This is the closest I've come that taste likes her's. Thanks for posting this recipe!
These look and sound delicious! I bet our kids would be all over these!
I make these as toddler snacks. They always go down well and lots of different ways you can do them too.
These are so perfect for kids lunches! They look so yummy too!
One BIG tip. It spreads much easier if u pat the slice of ham dry with paper towel before spreading the cream cheese. I also use room temperature softened regular cream cheese
That's a genius tip! Thanks!
Add some horseradish to the cream cheese. Great!
