Ingredients
8 slices thin-shaved oven-roasted turkey breast
4 ounces whipped cream cheese, room temperature
1 large English cucumber, julienned into matchsticks
1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
Instructions
Lay the turkey slices flat on a clean work surface or cutting board.
Spread a thin, even layer of the whipped cream cheese across each turkey slice.
Place a small cluster of cucumber matchsticks at one edge of the turkey slice.
Sprinkle a small amount of freshly cracked black pepper over the cucumbers.
Carefully roll the turkey slice tightly around the cucumbers.
Repeat with the remaining ingredients and serve immediately or store in an airtight container.
Notes
Ensure the cream cheese is at room temperature for an even, smooth application. If you prefer, add fresh herbs like dill or chives to the cream cheese mixture for extra brightness. Keep refrigerated if not consuming immediately; these hold up well in a chilled container for up to 24 hours.
