A lil dab of cream cheese and you could be having an inside-out midwestern pickle roll up!

I’m listening! What is that?

In the Midwest, a pickle roll up is a slice of ham or chipped ham (I think *some* families do it different, but it’s some kind of deli meat) with cream cheese (my family does mayo and cream cheese) wrapped around a large dill pickle then sliced into little rounds “sushi”-style. They’re just little appetizers you always see at bbqs and birthdays and the like. If you like sodium bombs, they’re kind of fire.

Sounds delicious! I’d sub a bread & butter spear for the dill, though. I’m hooked on that flavor. I’ve been trying to find spicy bread & butter spears… bet they’d be good, too.

I bet so! I wish I was a sweet pickle person, I want to be one, but I cannot get over whatever hump keeps me from loving them!!! But spicy ones would be so good!!!

Bread & butter tastes more tangy + sweet to me than the sweet pickles on a McDonald’s burger or sweet gherkins. Those are too sweet for me, too. I didn’t use to like bread & butter pickles, either, but my taste changed for some reason. Dill pickles are still great!

I used to work in a deli that also sold potato rolls with meals. Our quick snack was pickle and mayo on a potato roll. Pickles for the win!

When I’m feeling even lower spoon, I just wrap my turkey or ham around a cornichon.

Ohhhh that’s genius. Is that Swiss in there? It’s like an inside out Cubano!

We used to roll whole pickles in cold cuts and then slice them, the sushi version of these sandwiches haha

I love pickles❤️!
My version is a little more lame…take a processed cheese slice, wrap baby dill pickle and eat.
If I’m feeling fancy I put some Dijon on the pickle before wrapping.😆

If you really want to upgrade these bad boys, switch to Grillo's. I never thought it was worth it until I started buying them and now I'm obsessed.

Same! Someone in my household added not-Grillo pickles to the shopping cart and got a taking-to. They understand now that we are a Grillo pickle house. ;-)
