Pickle Wheels or Pickle Dip

I just love these quick yummy appetizers. 1 jar of dill pickles 1 8oz block of cream cheese (room temp) 1 package of Black Forest Ham ( I use Great Value) Spread cream cheese over pieces of Ham.  Roll a piece of ham over a pickle spear and then slice.  Super super easy Right?? Another version is to make this into a dip.  Cut pickles into bite sized pieces, cut ham into chunks.  Whip the cream cheese until it is creamy and add the pickles and ham.  Serve with veggies or crackers.  Super easy and super yummy either recipe you prefer.
