Low Carb 3-Ingredient Salami Pickle Bites

Ingredients:

Ingredient Quantity
Salami slices 24 / pieces
Dill pickle spears (cut into thirds lengthwise if needed) 8 / pieces
Cream cheese (softened) 4 / ounces

Step-by-Step Directions:

Step 1: Dry the Pickles Thoroughly: Remove your 8 dill pickle spears from their brine and lay them flat on a thick layer of paper towels. Pat them down thoroughly until they are completely bone-dry.

Tip: Skipping this step ensures the cream cheese will slide right off the pickles, turning your neat bundles into a slippery, messy plate.

Step 2: Spread the Cream Cheese Base: Lay your 24 salami slices flat on a clean cutting board or work surface. Using a butter knife or small spatula, spread a thin, completely even layer of the 4 ounces of softened cream cheese over one full side of each salami round.

Step 3: Roll the Bundles: Place one dried piece of pickle spear directly at the edge of a cream-cheese-coated salami slice. Roll the salami tightly around the pickle spear to create a compact, bite-sized bundle. Repeat the process for all 24 pieces.

Step 4: Chill to Set: Arrange the assembled bundles seam-side down on your serving tray so they stay closed. Place the platter into the refrigerator to chill for 10 / to 15 / minutes. This brief cold rest firms up the fats in the cream cheese and salami, locking the shape into place and making them much easier to grab. Serve cold.
