Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 225 grams cream cheese
- 1 red bell pepper
- 2 stalks green onions
- 100 grams shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoons garlic powder
- 4 flour tortillas (large)
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Finely dice the red bell pepper and slice the green onions. Add them to the cream cheese mixture and stir until evenly distributed.
Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a quarter of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the surface of the tortilla, leaving about 1 cm (1/2 inch) around the edges.
Starting at one end, roll the tortilla tightly into a log. Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Wrap each rolled tortilla tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up.
After chilling, remove the plastic wrap and use a sharp knife to slice each tortilla roll into 1-inch pinwheels.
Arrange the pinwheels on a serving platter and serve immediately. Enjoy!
