The Best Low Carb Roast Beef Roll Ups with Herb Cream Cheese

Are you looking for a low-carb appetizer for the holidays? These Low-Carb Roast Beef Roll-Ups are an easy, make-ahead appetizer that will disappear before your eyes!

I like to find the roast beef slices that are long ovals for this recipe as they are the easiest to use for this type of roll-up. I also start with the least perfect end, so if there are any tears they will be rolled inside making them easier to pick up. You could also use a toothpick inserted through the whole roll up to keep them together.

Make sure you chill the roll ups before serving, this will also make them easier to slice. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve. I like to serve them on a long rectangular plate or platter in multiple rows.


Ingredients:


  • 12 ounces sliced roast beef lunch meat
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 8 ounce package cream cheese, softened
  • 2 Tablespoons Italian seasoning


Instructions:


  1. Mix the cream cheese with the Italian seasoning and garlic powder until blended.
  2. Spread about 1 Tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture over 1 slice of roast beef.
  3. Roll tightly and repeat.
  4. Place the roll-ups on a plate with seams down and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
  5. Cut into 1/2 inch slices before serving.
