Sprinkle the lettuce in an even layer over each one.
3 leaves romaine lettuce
Add a layer of mozzarella (3 slices) across the middle of each, with edges overlapping to cover the tortilla.
12 slices mozzarella cheese
Repeat with 3 slices each of salami and ham.

Using your hands, gently roll the tortilla.

Notes

If the tortillas begin to unroll, try wrapping them tightly in plastic wrap before refrigerating them. Toothpicks also work great for holding them together.
