Directions
-
In a small bowl, combine softened cream cheese, chopped walnuts or pecans, and pumpkin pie spice or ground cinnamon; mix well until smooth.
-
Briefly warm one tortilla on both sides in a non-stick skillet over medium heat for about 1 minute per side; do not let it brown.
-
Remove the warm tortilla from the skillet and let it cool slightly on a cutting board.
-
Spread approximately one-sixth of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the tortilla, leaving a half-inch border around the edge.
-
Lay three thin slices of ham, overlapping slightly, across the center of the tortilla.
-
Top the ham with fresh pineapple chunks and 1 or 2 lettuce leaves.
-
Tightly roll up the tortilla from one end to the other.
-
Wrap each roll-up securely in plastic wrap to hold its shape; repeat with remaining tortillas and ingredients.

Note
For best results, chill the wrapped roll-ups in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the rolls to firm up.
You can substitute the walnuts or pecans with other nuts like almonds or cashews if preferred, or omit them entirely for a nut-free version.
If you prefer a spicier kick, add a dash of hot sauce or diced jalape&# 195;±os to the cream cheese mixture.
These roll-ups can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened before mixing to achieve a smooth, spreadable consistency.
