Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tbsp sour cream
- 3 stalks green onions
- 0.5 red bell pepper
- 0.25 cup black olives
- 0.5 tsp garlic powder
- 0.25 tsp paprika
- 0.25 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, add the cream cheese and sour cream. Beat together with a hand mixer or a spoon until smooth and creamy.
Finely chop the green onions, red bell pepper, and black olives. Add them to the cream cheese mixture.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Lay one flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a thin, even layer of the cream cheese mixture over the entire surface of the tortilla, leaving about a 1/2-inch border around the edges.
Carefully roll the tortilla up tightly, starting from one end and rolling towards the opposite side. Press gently to seal the edges.
Repeat with the remaining tortillas and cream cheese mixture.
Wrap each rolled tortilla in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up.
After chilling, remove the plastic wrap from the tortillas. Use a sharp knife to slice each roll into 1-inch pinwheels.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Enjoy!
