Caught my father-in-law eating 7 of these by himself the other day!

The humble rollup takes on a nutritious twist with this Low Carb Broccoli, Ham, and Cheese Rollup recipe. Borrowing the idea of wrapped delights from various cultures, such as the Mediterranean's dolma or Mexico's burrito, this dish swaps out carb-rich tortillas for crisp, fresh broccoli leaves, making it perfect for those monitoring their carbohydrate intake or following a ketogenic diet. By incorporating ham and cheese, we tap into a classic combination that's both satisfying and familiar. These rollups are a perfect option for a light lunch, a snack, or even as a delightful appetizer.
This versatile dish pairs wonderfully with a fresh garden salad, diced avocado with a sprinkle of sea salt, or even a side of zesty, homemade salsa for those who appreciate a bit of a kick. For a heartier meal, consider serving a bowl of warm, low-carb soup or steamed vegetables on the side.
