A party appetizer that works EVERY time - Lori’s “ham roll” recipe
Everybody loves my recipes, although I rarely have amounts or quantity needed – “how much olive oil?” “I don’t know – it depends on how much pasta you make!” :-)
Here’s a recipe I make that’s great for holiday parties and will make people think you are a natural born chef.
I wish I could think of a fancy name for them, but I just call them “ham rolls.”
Mix softened cream cheese with finely diced green onions and chopped artichoke hearts. I use the canned artichoke hearts, drained. Buy pre-packaged square ham luncheon meat and roll the cream cheese mixture, as if you were rolling a cigarette.
You HAVE to pack the mixture at both ends, to make sure there are no air pockets.
Okay - I normally start with two packages of cream cheese, 2 cans of artichoke hearts, two to three bunches of green onions, and two packages of ham. If you wind up with extra filling, you can always use it as a dip with crackers! 
After rolling the ham rolls, refrigerate to harden, then slice before serving. It's best to slice using a serrated or very sharp knife.
I tried this recipe with turkey one time, and I just missed the salty flavor of the ham. I have substituted hearts of palm for the artichokes, and that’s a nice change too.
Good luck if you make this for a holiday party! Let me know if you make any revisions that improve my recipe!
