Description
Colorful Vegetable Tortilla Roll Ups are a crowd-pleasing, make-ahead appetizer or light lunch featuring creamy ranch-seasoned cream cheese and crisp vegetables.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 (1 ounce) package dry ranch dressing mix
- 1/2 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
- 1/2 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
- 1/2 cup finely chopped carrots
- 1/4 cup finely chopped green onions
- 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
- 10 (10 inch) flour tortillas
Instructions
- Soften the cream cheese; microwave in 15-second intervals if needed, being careful not to melt.
- In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese and sour cream until smooth.
- Sprinkle dry ranch dressing mix into the cream cheese mixture and mix thoroughly.
- Add chopped red bell pepper, green bell pepper, carrots, and green onions; gently fold into the cream cheese mixture.
- Squeeze the thawed spinach dry and add to the bowl.
- Gently fold in spinach until evenly distributed; taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
- Chill the filling for at least 30 minutes (optional).
- Lay out a clean, flat surface.
- Warm tortillas slightly to make them more pliable (optional).
- Spread a thin, even layer of the cream cheese filling over each tortilla, leaving a 1/2 inch border.
- Starting at one edge, tightly roll up the tortilla.
- Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
- Wrap each rolled tortilla tightly in plastic wrap and chill for at least 2 hours or preferably overnight.
- Unwrap and slice into 1-inch thick slices; trim off ends for clean edges.
- Arrange sliced roll-ups on a serving platter and garnish if desired.
- Serve chilled and enjoy!
Notes
Squeeze spinach very dry to avoid sogginess. Warming tortillas reduces cracking. Chill filled, wrapped tortillas for clean slicing.
