Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 large flour tortillas
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes in oil, drained and finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup black olives, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 4 ounces thinly sliced deli ham, finely chopped
  • 4 ounces thinly sliced salami or pepperoni, finely chopped
  • 4 ounces provolone cheese, finely chopped

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder. Mix until smooth.
  2. Add the finely chopped sun-dried tomatoes, olives, and parsley to the cream cheese mixture. Stir well to combine.
  3. Fold in the chopped ham, salami or pepperoni, and chopped provolone cheese. Mix gently until all the chopped meats and cheese are evenly distributed throughout the filling.
  4. Lay one flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread about 1/4 cup of the filling evenly over the entire surface of the tortilla, leaving a small border on one long edge.
  5. Starting from the opposite long edge, tightly roll up the tortilla.
  6. Wrap the rolled tortilla tightly in plastic wrap. Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas and filling.
  7. Refrigerate the wrapped pinwheels for at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours, to allow them to firm up. This step is important for clean slicing.
  8. When ready to serve, unwrap the chilled tortillas. Slice each roll into 1-inch thick pinwheels.
  9. Arrange the **Italian roll ups recipe** pieces on a platter and serve immediately as a **cold appetizer roll ups** option.

Notes

  • For the best results when making **make ahead snacks for crowds**, chill the rolls for a minimum of 4 hours.
  • If you prefer a slightly softer filling, let the mixture sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before spreading.
  • You can substitute the deli meats with cooked, crumbled Italian sausage for a different flavor profile.
