Ingredients

6 pickle spears
12 ham slices
1 teaspoon fresh chives
1 teaspoon fresh dill
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 x 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
3 x 12 ounce Mission Carb Balance flour tortillas


Instructions

On a cutting board dice the pickles.

Place the ham slices in a food processor and blend till you have small chunks.

Place the diced ham, diced picks, fresh chives, fresh dill, garlic powder in a medium size bowl.

Place the cream cheese in a food processor and blend till it is nice and creamy.

Add the whipped cream cheese to the medium size bowl and stir with a spatula till everything is well combined. It should look like a dip at this point.

Spread the ham pickle dip mixture on a tortilla. Leave about 1/2″ on all sides. Roll the tortilla tightly and place on a large plate. Repeat this process till all the tortillas are used up. Use Saran Wrap and refrigerate the rolled tortillas for at least 2 hours to firm up.

Remove from the refrigerator and  place on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife cut the ends off. Then cut into 1″ pinwheels. 

Arrange on a plate and serve!
