Ingredients
Scale
Filling Ingredients
- 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup salsa
- 1 packet taco seasoning mix
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/2 cup diced green onions
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
- 1/2 cup sliced black olives (optional)
Other
- 8-10 large flour tortillas
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese, sour cream, salsa, and taco seasoning mix until smooth and creamy, ensuring all the flavors are well incorporated.
- Add Toppings: Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, diced tomatoes, green onions, chopped cilantro, and sliced black olives (if using). Mix gently to evenly distribute the ingredients.
- Assemble the Roll-Ups: Lay out each flour tortilla flat and spread a generous, even layer of the filling mixture over the tortilla, leaving about a half-inch border around the edges to avoid overflow.
- Roll Up: Starting at one end, tightly roll each tortilla into a log shape, tucking the edges as needed to keep the filling inside. Repeat this process with all remaining tortillas and filling.
- Chill and Slice: Place the rolled tortillas seam side down on a plate or baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the roll-ups to firm up for easier slicing.
- Serve: Unwrap the chilled roll-ups and slice them into 1-inch thick rounds using a sharp knife. Arrange them attractively on a serving platter and serve cold as a flavorful appetizer or snack.
Notes
- For best results, use large flour tortillas that are pliable enough to roll without cracking.
- Feel free to customize the filling with other veggies like diced bell peppers or jalapeños for added spice.
- If you prefer a gluten-free version, substitute the flour tortillas with gluten-free wraps.
- These roll-ups can be prepared a day ahead and stored covered in the refrigerator to save time.
- Use mild or hot salsa according to your taste preference to control the spiciness.
