Pregnancy Pickle Poppers

I love pickles- Dill pickles! When I say pickle I mean Dill pickle- to me they are the only variety! No you will not have to be pregnant to enjoy them, but they are sure to please the pregnant or non-pregnant pickle lover in all of us.

You will need:

• 1/2 lb Deli Sliced Ham (Cut on #2)- I love Saleen Ham
• 1 Brick Cream Cheese (Good time to cash in the Kraft Philladelphia Cream Cheese Coupons)
• 1 Jar Dill pickles- whole (spears or slices are not ideal)

Place 1 slice of ham flat, spread lightly with cream cheese. Roll a pickle into the ham slice. Cut log into rounds. Chill and serve.
