These keto salami roll-ups are a quick, low-carb lunch or snack idea featuring savory salami, creamy herbed cheese, and crunchy veggies. They’re easy to make, endlessly customizable, and perfect for meal prep or parties.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 large slices salami (Genoa or hard salami, about 34 inches across)
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons fresh herbs (dill, chives, or parsley), chopped
  • 68 mini pickles or pepperoncini, sliced lengthwise
  • Crunchy veggies (optional, such as cucumber strips, bell pepper, or celery), cut into thin matchsticks
  • Pinch of black pepper
  • Toothpicks (for serving)

Instructions

  1. Lay out 12 slices of large salami on a clean cutting board.
  2. Let 4 oz cream cheese soften at room temperature for easier mixing and spreading.
  3. Finely chop 2 tablespoons fresh herbs.
  4. Slice 6-8 mini pickles or pepperoncini lengthwise into thin strips.
  5. Cut optional veggies into thin matchsticks, about 3 inches long.
  6. In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, Dijon mustard, chopped herbs, a pinch of black pepper, and any other desired flavor boosters. Mix thoroughly until smooth.
  7. Lay a slice of salami flat. Spread about 1-1.5 teaspoons of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the surface, leaving a small border.
  8. Place a strip or two of pickle (or pepperoncini) and a few veggie matchsticks near one edge.
  9. Starting from the veggie end, roll the salami up tightly but gently. Place seam side down.
  10. Repeat with remaining slices and filling.
  11. Insert a toothpick through the center of each roll-up to hold it together.
  12. Arrange on a serving plate and sprinkle with extra chopped herbs if desired.

Notes

For best results, use softened cream cheese and pat veggies dry to prevent sogginess. Overlap two salami slices if your deli meat is thin or tears easily. These roll-ups can be made ahead and stored in the fridge for up to 3 days. Feel free to customize with different meats, cheeses, or flavor boosters like hot sauce or smoked paprika.
