Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Flour tortillas (large, burrito-sized)
- 225 grams Cream cheese (softened)
- 60 milliliters Sour cream
- 100 grams Shredded cheddar cheese
- 50 grams Finely diced red bell pepper
- 50 grams Finely diced green bell pepper
- 30 grams Chopped green onions
- 50 grams Sliced black olives (optional)
- 15 grams Minced fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and sour cream. Mix until smooth and well blended.
Add shredded cheddar cheese, diced red and green bell peppers, chopped green onions, black olives (if using), parsley, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper to the cream cheese mixture. Stir thoroughly to distribute the ingredients evenly.
Lay one flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a thin, even layer of the cream cheese mixture over the entire tortilla, leaving about 1 cm of space around the edges.
Tightly roll the tortilla from one end to the other, forming a log. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Wrap each tortilla roll tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up.
Remove the rolls from the fridge and unwrap them. Using a sharp knife, slice each roll into 1- to 1.5-cm thick pieces. Discard the uneven ends if desired.
Arrange the sliced roll ups on a serving platter. Garnish with extra parsley for a festive touch, if desired.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
