TIPS FOR MAKING HAM AND CHEESE ROLL-UPS:
Topping: Mix cheddar cheese, ranch seasoning, and melted cream cheese in a bowl.
Divide the mixture between 5 tortillas, spread it to the edges, and roll it up. Add a fifth of the sliced ham. Each tortilla must be carefully rolled. After chilling for a few hours, wrap each roll in plastic wrap.
When ready to serve, make pinwheels by cutting ham and cheese buns into 12-inch rounds or pinwheels.

VARIATIONS ON ROLLS WITH HAM AND CHEESE
Vegetables: Finely chopped fresh vegetables add color and flavor to your ranch cream cheese. Try broccoli, carrots, or cucumbers.
Swap out the cheese: Ham and Swiss’s cheese go well together. You can also try Colby jack or mozzarella. It really does not matter what kind of grated cheese you have in the fridge; it will probably taste delicious.
Try Pickles: Ham and cheese pinwheels taste great with chopped dill pickles or chopped green olives. To keep things from getting wet, dry them on paper towels.
HOW DO YOU STORE HAM AND CHEESE ROLLS?
The best way to EASY HAM AND CHEESE ROLL-UPS RECIPE. Your pinwheels should be stored in the refrigerator. These pinwheels are perfect for entertaining, as they taste delicious and warm even at room temperature.
How long can pinwheels be stored in the fridge?
The pinwheels can be kept in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat them in the oven before serving so that the pastry can crisp up again.
To warm up: Heat on a parchment-lined baking sheet at 375 degrees F until thoroughly heated.
DO I BAKE THESE?
This recipe is best eaten cold, straight from the fridge, rather than cooked.
CAN I MAKE HAM AND CHEESE ROLLS FROM THE DAY BEFORE?
These can be prepared a day in advance. However, I recommend delaying slicing the rolled tortillas until just before serving.
CAN I USE SLICED CHEESE FOR GRATED CHEESE?
Yes. Before rolling the tortilla, stack the slices on top of the ham, and do not add the cheese to the cream cheese.
