A delightful layered tortilla dish with creamy cheese and savory ham, perfect for gatherings.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and light mayonnaise until smooth.
Ensure the cream cheese is softened to make mixing easier and achieve a smooth consistency.
Stir in the diced green pepper, chopped green onion, and sliced ripe olives into the creamy mixture.
Mix gently to evenly distribute the vegetables without breaking them.
Place one tortilla on a serving plate and spread a portion of the creamy mixture evenly over it.
Use a spatula to spread the mixture evenly for a uniform layer.
Add a layer of thinly sliced ham over the creamy mixture.
Overlap the ham slices slightly to cover the tortilla completely.
Repeat the layering process with the remaining tortillas, creamy mixture, and ham, finishing with a tortilla on top.
Press gently on each layer to compact the stack and ensure stability.
Cover the stack with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.
Chilling helps the layers to firm up, making it easier to slice and serve.
Slice the stack into wedges and serve.
Use a sharp knife to make clean cuts and maintain the stack's structure.
