Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 20 slices salami Genoa or hard
  • 1 cup fresh baby spinach leaves
  • Toothpicks or small skewers optional

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Soften the Cream Cheese.
  2. Allow the cream cheese to sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes to soften. This will make it easier to spread evenly on the salami slices. You can speed up the process by cutting the cream cheese into smaller cubes.
  3. Step 2: Prepare the Salami.
  4. Lay out the salami slices flat on a clean work surface. Arrange them in a single layer, ensuring they are not overlapping. This will allow you to easily spread the cream cheese and add the spinach.
  5. Step 3: Wash and Dry the Spinach.
  6. Thoroughly wash the fresh baby spinach leaves under cold water to remove any dirt or debris. Pat them dry with a clean paper towel or use a salad spinner to remove excess moisture. This will prevent the roll-ups from becoming soggy.
  7. Step 4: Gather Your Tools.
  8. Have a butter knife or small spatula ready for spreading the cream cheese. If you plan on slicing the roll-ups into bite-sized pieces, have a sharp knife and cutting board on hand. Also, prepare toothpicks or small skewers if you want to secure the slices.
  9. Step 5: Clear Your Workspace.
  10. Make sure you have a clean and organized workspace. This will make the preparation process smoother and more efficient. Remove any unnecessary items from the counter to avoid clutter.
