Cheesy 3-Ingredient Ham Bombs – Quick Low-Carb Snack
My older brother survived college on these quick, satisfying snacks. With just three ingredients, you get a warm, cheesy comfort bite that hits the spot every time.
Ingredients (Serves 4)
8 slices of deli ham
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
4 oz cream cheese, softened
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the ham: Lay out the slices of ham on a clean surface.
Add the filling: Spread a thin layer of cream cheese on each slice, then sprinkle shredded cheddar over the top.
Roll it up: Carefully roll each ham slice into a tight cylinder.
Bake: Place the rolls seam-side down in a lightly greased glass baking dish. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the ham edges are lightly browned and the cheddar is melted and bubbly.
Serve: Enjoy hot right out of the oven. Pair with a simple green salad, cherry tomatoes, or cucumbers for a light touch. Optional: serve with ranch or mustard for dipping.
Tips & Variations
Meal prep-friendly: Make a batch and reheat a few at a time for easy snacks or lunches throughout the week.
Heartier version: Serve alongside tomato soup or sautéed vegetables for a fuller meal.
Extra flavor: Add a sprinkle of paprika or chopped chives before baking for a flavor boost.
