Ham Bombs

9 1 minute read

These cheesy ham rolls were a staple snack for my older brother back in college—quick to make, satisfying, and incredibly comforting. With just deli ham, cheddar cheese, and cream cheese, they come together in no time. Simply roll them up, bake until the edges are lightly golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly, and you’ve got the perfect option for busy days or late-night cravings.

They’re best served warm alongside something fresh like a crisp salad, sliced cucumbers, or cherry tomatoes. If you’re in the mood for extra flavor, try pairing them with ranch dressing or spicy mustard for dipping. They also work great for meal prep—make a batch ahead of time and enjoy easy snacks or quick lunches throughout the week.

Ham Bombs (3 Ingredients, Low Carb)

Ingredients

12 slices deli ham (about ¾ lb)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
4 oz cream cheese, softened

Directions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease an 8×8-inch baking dish.
In a bowl, combine the cream cheese with ½ cup of the cheddar until smooth and easy to spread.
Lay out each slice of ham, add a spoonful of the mixture, and roll it up tightly.
Place the rolls seam-side down in the baking dish and sprinkle the remaining cheddar on top.
Bake for 15–20 minutes, until the tops are golden and the cheese is melted and bubbling.
Let them cool slightly before serving warm.
