Ham Pickle Roll Ups Ingredients

This section explains how to choose the best ingredients for ham, cream cheese, and pickle roll ups, what each one does in the recipe, and substitution options. For measurements, see the recipe card below.

  • Cream cheese – I used plain cream cheese, but you could also use savory flavored ones, such as garlic herb. Dairy-free cream cheese works fine as well for a dairy-free option.
  • Ham – Choose ham slices that is thick enough to avoid tearing but thin enough to roll up. I recommend getting ones without added nitrates or nitrites. You can also swap this with other deli meats, such as turkey.
  • Dill pickles – Choose ones sizes similarly to the width of your ham slices. I used whole pickles, but pickle spears will work great as well.
  • Green onions – Feel free to skip these, but I love the added flavor and crunch. You can also substitute fresh chives.
