- Spread each tortilla lightly with cream cheese. Arrange two ham slices across the middle of each tortilla. Add a layer of fresh basil, then a layer of tomatoes. Do not place ingredients too close to tortilla edges. Add lettuce; use enough leaf lettuce to cover across the centre of each tortilla, with some of the frilly leaf edge hanging over.
- Starting at one end, tightly roll up each tortilla. Stick cocktail sticks in four evenly spaced spots of tortilla roll. Place tortilla rolls in a dish, cover and refrigerate for 2 hours to chill.
- Slice each roll into four evenly sized sandwiches and serve as soon as possible.

INSTEAD OF FRESH BASIL AND THE WHOLE SUNDRIED TOMATOES, I USED SUNDRIED TOMATO PESTO. IT ADDED GREAT FLAVOR, AND I ALSO USED EXTRA CREAM CHEESE AND A FEW SLICES OF MEAT. - 04 Jun 2003 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
This recipe is great. I served them at a bridal shower and everyone was so impressed. A little pricey, but absolutely worth every penny. - 27 Aug 2002 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
These were wonderful. They were easy to make. 1 package of tortillas is plenty. I followed instructions exactly & the taste was amazing. The combination of the fresh basil & the sundried tomatoes really made this a hit. I made these 1 day ahead of time, covered them well with saran wrap & they held up nicely. Will definately do again. - 01 Feb 2003 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
