Make-Ahead Roast Beef Roll-Ups
If you’re looking for a dish that’s both impressive and simple to make, look no further! These roast beef roll-ups are filled with a zesty horseradish spread that brings a wonderful flavor to the table.
Ingredients
- 8 slices of roast beef (thinly sliced)
- 4 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 2 tablespoons prepared horseradish
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 4 green onions (chopped)
- 1 cup arugula or spinach leaves
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Toothpicks (for securing the roll-ups)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, prepared horseradish, Dijon mustard, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Lay out the slices of roast beef on a clean surface or a cutting board. Make sure they are slightly overlapping to create a large surface area for rolling.
- Spread a thin layer of the horseradish cream cheese mixture over each slice of roast beef.
- Top the spread with a sprinkle of chopped green onions and a few leaves of arugula or spinach for some color and crunch.
- Starting from one end, carefully roll the beef tightly around the filling. You want to make sure it’s secure but not too tight that it tears.
- Use toothpicks to secure the rolls in place. Depending on your preference, you can cut each roll into bite-sized pieces or keep them whole for a more substantial serving.
- Cover and refrigerate the roll-ups for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. They can be made a day in advance, making them a perfect option for meal prep.
- When ready to serve, simply remove the toothpicks and arrange the roll-ups on a platter. Enjoy!
