- 8 thin slices of turkey breast
- 8 string cheese sticks
- 16 green olives, pitted
- 16 cherry tomatoes
- Fresh dill (optional)
- Toothpicks (optional)
- Lay each slice of turkey breast flat on a clean surface or cutting board.
- Place a string cheese stick at one end of each turkey slice.
- Roll the turkey slice around the cheese stick firmly but gently, ensuring the cheese is well covered.
- Secure each roll-up with a toothpick if necessary.
- Arrange the roll-ups on a platter, garnishing with green olives and cherry tomatoes.
- For an added touch, place fresh dill sprigs around the platter for a burst of color and extra flavor.
To make this recipe even more inviting, consider adding a thin layer of your favorite condiment inside the turkey slice before placing the cheese stick — honey mustard or a smooth avocado spread could work wonders! If you don’t have string cheese, you can use small slices of cheddar or mozzarella cut into sticks. This simple twist can enhance the flavors and offer some variety.
Store any leftover roll-ups in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. They make for a great grab-and-go snack!
Ingredient Substitutions
If turkey is unavailable, chicken or roast beef slices make excellent alternatives. For a vegetarian version, consider using grilled zucchini strips instead of turkey.
These Turkey and Cheese Roll-ups pair perfectly with a crisp green salad or a light vegetable soup. For drinks, a refreshing iced tea or a sparkling water with a splash of lemon would complement the flavors wonderfully.
