Ham Roll-Ups

Ham roll ups are easy bite-size appetizers that require only 5 ingredients. They are quick to put together but can also be made in advance, if needed.

⅓ cup fresh chives, finely chopped
4 oz (½ cup) cream cheese (120 g)
3 oz red cheddar, grated
black pepper, freshly ground
4 slices deli ham

In a bowl, mix together chives, cream cheese, cheddar and black pepper until well combined.

Spread a thin layer over a slice of ham. Take the shorter end of ham and roll it tight into a sausage. Repeat until you have used up all the filling. Place the rolls into an airtight container or wrap them in aluminum foil and chill for 30 minutes.

When chilled, cut each roll into about 1" (2.5-cm) thick bites.

Cook's Notes:

• You get filling enough for 4 slices. Don't overfill them as the cheese can make them quite salty.
• Instead of grated cheddar, you can use mozzarella or gouda.
