Five minutes before she headed out the door today, Christa remember the lunch menu was not one of her favorites. It’s grocery day here, which means my fridge is nearly bare, and we’re out of bread. A cold lunch that would actually meet her calorie needs wasn’t looking very promising. But then I noticed the little container of leftover cheese spread from the weekend. It was to die for with Buttery Ritz crackers, and I thought it might pair well with ham in a wrap- so we did a little test run…The results were amazing. I’m pretty sure we have a new found cold lunch favorite!
Rolled into wraps for cold lunches or cut into appetizer rounds for tailgating, this recipe is versatile. Layer on the the cream cheese spread a little heavier to beef up that calorie count, cut it back for the rest of the family! I think you will love it however you spread it.
Mix the butter & cream cheese in their softened state until smooth. Add seasonings and Siracha. It’s ready to spread right away, or refrigerate overnight for extra flavor. Spread a large flour tortilla with the cream cheese mixture. Layer on sliced ham & add shredded cheese if desired. I also would have added fresh lettuce for the lunch version if I would have had it on hand. Roll it up tightly and slice into halves or 1″ rounds. Store in an airtight container.
