Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large spinach tortillas
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 4 tablespoons sour cream
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup baby spinach, stems removed and chopped
- 1 cup cucumber, finely diced
- 0.5 cup green bell pepper, finely diced
- 2 stalks green onion, thinly sliced
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, fresh dill, parsley, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until everything is well combined and smooth.
Fold in the chopped baby spinach, diced cucumber, diced green bell pepper, sliced green onion, and shredded mozzarella cheese. Mix gently to ensure the vegetables are evenly distributed.
Lay one spinach tortilla flat on a clean surface and spread a thin, even layer of the cream cheese mixture onto the tortilla, leaving about half an inch around the edges.
Carefully roll the tortilla tightly into a log shape. Repeat the spreading and rolling process for the remaining spinach tortillas.
Once all tortillas are rolled, wrap each tightly in plastic wrap to hold their shape, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and to make slicing easier.
Remove the plastic wrap and trim the ends of each roll to create clean edges.
Slice each roll into 1-inch thick pieces, arranging them flat-side-up on a serving platter.
Serve chilled or at room temperature as a refreshing and colorful appetizer!
