Ingredients
Scale
- 8 slices of deli corned beef (preferably nitrate-free)
- 8 slices of cheese (Swiss, provolone, or cheddar work well)
- 1/2 cup of cream cheese, softened
- 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh chives (or 1 teaspoon dried chives)
- 1 tablespoon of dill pickles, finely chopped (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Lettuce leaves (for wrapping, optional)
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients on a clean countertop. This will help you stay organized and make the process smoother.
- In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, Dijon mustard, chopped chives, chopped dill pickles (if using), garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined, and set aside.
- Take a slice of corned beef and lay it flat on a clean cutting board. Use a spatula to spread a generous tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture over the entire slice, ensuring even coverage.
- Place a slice of cheese on top of the cream cheese layer. If you're using a firmer cheese, press it down gently to ensure it sticks.
- Starting from one end, carefully roll the slice of corned beef tightly around the cheese. Aim for a tight roll to prevent the filling from spilling out. Repeat this process with the remaining slices of corned beef.
- Once all the roll-ups are assembled, you can cut them in half for easier handling if desired. The visual cue here is to see the cheese just peeking out of the ends.
- If you’re using lettuce leaves, lay them flat and wrap the roll-ups inside for an extra crunch and freshness. Serve immediately for the best flavor.

Keywords: Ensure your cream cheese is fully softened before mixing. Experiment with different cheeses; a smoked Gouda can add a rich, smoky flavor that complements the corned beef beautifully.
