Ingredients
  

8 slices of deli turkey breast

1 large apple (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp recommended)

4 ounces cream cheese, softened

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1 tablespoon honey (optional)

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (optional)

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

Fresh greens for garnish (such as spinach or arugula)

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Prepare the Apple: Start by coring the apple and slicing it into thin rounds or wedges, roughly 1/8 inch thick. Feel free to keep the skin on for added texture and nutritional benefits.

    Make the Cream Cheese Spread: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese with honey, Dijon mustard, and ground cinnamon. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well blended, creating a deliciously creamy spread.

      Assemble the Roll-Ups: Take one slice of turkey breast and lay it flat on a clean surface or cutting board. Using a spatula or the back of a spoon, spread a thin, even layer of the cream cheese mixture across the turkey.

        Layer with Apples and Cheese: Place a few apple slices on top of the cream cheese layer, then sprinkle a generous layer of shredded sharp cheddar cheese over the apple slices for an extra zing.

          Roll It Up: Starting at one end of the turkey slice, carefully roll it up tightly around the apple and cheese filling. If needed, secure the roll-up with a toothpick to keep everything in place.

            Repeat the Process: Continue assembling the roll-ups with the remaining turkey slices and filling until all ingredients have been used.

              Serve and Garnish: Arrange the completed roll-ups neatly on a serving platter. Garnish with fresh greens and drizzle a little extra honey over the top if desired. Season with salt and pepper to taste for a flavor boost.

                Enjoy: These turkey apple cheese roll-ups can be enjoyed right away or chilled in the refrigerator for up to an hour before serving. They make an excellent appetizer or a delightful snack for any occasion!
