Low Carb Pinwheels with Bacon and Cream Cheese
Before I share my low carb pinwheels recipe, I have a story.
I spend my day-to-day with my children determined to scare them out of their wits; I figure it’s payback for all of the complaining that I must endure. At times I will I jump out at them from behind a door.
Or I will yell “boo” while standing quietly next to them. And it works. Every time. And their attempts at retribution always end in failure. At least they did until the other day. And, of course, the one time one of them is successful, is when I happen to be carrying a cup of water.
“Boo!”
And, soaked.
She got me. And I ended up covered in water. She was so terribly proud of her efforts but was polite enough to apologize for the water. Although I know I will never live that moment down.
That story has absolutely no relevance to the low carb pinwheels recipe, but I felt like sharing. Especially as I plot my retaliation for her success.
So, on with the real reason you are likely here.
Low Carb Pinwheels with Bacon and Cream Cheese
This is a relatively quick and easy recipe that you can customize to your own tastes. I believe bacon makes everything better, but you can use another type of lunch meat in place of the bacon if you prefer. Layer your favorite ingredients on top of a grid of lunch meat, roll and enjoy!
Roll as tightly as you can to make it easier to cut.
Use a sharp knife and you can serve all at once as an appetizer or wrap individually to enjoy as a snack. Store in fridge until ready to serve.
This makes a quick and easy appetizer or party recipe regardless of whether or not your guests follow a low carb or keto diet.

Ingredients
- 8 slices of ham or salami lunchmeat thick sliced (or double up thinly sliced lunchmeat)
