Want a real crowd-pleaser? Try those classic ham, pickle, and cream cheese roll-ups. You know ’em well…spread cream cheese onto a slice of ham and roll it up around a dill pickle spear. Chop them into bite-sized pieces and watch them disappear.
This scrumptious sandwich is a twist on that popular appetizer. The makings of a great sandwich right there.
And one more, very important ingredient for this sammy — I fried the pickles. Guys, it’s a game changer. Adds so much flavor and texture!
INGREDIENTS NEEDED TO MAKE HAM AND PICKLE SANDWICHES:
- 2 slices, hearty bread
- 8 slices, honey ham
- ½ cup, fried pickles (easiest to pick up the frozen ones, but you can also fry your own)
- 1 Tablespoon, cream cheese
- 1 Tablespoon, mayo
- ¼ teaspoon, dried parsley
- ** if frying pickles, you also need ¼ cup milk and ¼ cup breadcrumbs
DIRECTIONS TO MAKE HAM AND PICKLE SANDWICHES:
- If frying your own pickles, dip pickle slices in milk & breadcrumbs, then fry for 2-3 minutes a side in a skillet coated with vegetable oil. Allow them to cool while putting together the sandwich.
- Toast the slices of bread.
- On one slice of bread, spread cream cheese.
- Sprinkle dried parsley onto cream cheese.
- On other slice of bread, add ham, mayo and pickle slices.
- Put together both sides to make a sandwich, and enjoy!
It’s super easy to fry…well, anything, but definitely slices of pickles. Dip them in milk, shake them in a closed baggie of flour, and brown them up in a skillet of oil. So easy, so tasty.
handy tools to help make these sandwiches sooooo easy:
- skillet – nonstick, easy clean
- cooling rack – cool pickles yet drain oil, oven safe, dishwasher safe
Next, assemble the sandwich. Don’t forget the cream cheese and mayo! Looking good already.
YUM tip: Spread some mayo on the outside of your bread to make a perfectly crispy sandwich. Oh yes. Full of crunch, and bursting with flavor, this is our new favorite sandwich.

You clearly used some sort of herb in cream cheese and on pickles, why wasn’t it included? Looks great but would love to know since it seems to add so much to pictures and seems to be an ingredient. Thanks

Good catch! It’s dried parsley, which I used to add color & texture to the photos… but should definitely also be in the recipe. Fixed!
