Perfect for quick appetizers or a fun snack, these Salsa Cheese Roll Ups pack bold flavors into bite-sized treats that are as easy to make as they are to enjoy. Made with soft flour tortillas filled with a creamy mixture of cheddar cheese, tangy salsa, aromatic green onions, and just a hint of garlic powder, these pinwheels deliver a satisfying combination of creaminess and zest in every bite. Optional fresh cilantro adds a pop of freshness, while a short prep time of just 15 minutes makes this recipe a go-to for parties, game days, or casual gatherings. Serve them chilled for a refreshing, crowd-pleasing appetizer that pairs beautifully with extra salsa or guacamole. With simple ingredients and no cooking required, these roll-ups offer the perfect balance of convenience and deliciousness!
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, salsa, garlic powder, green onions, and cilantro (if using). Mix thoroughly until well combined.
Lay one flour tortilla flat on a clean surface.
Spread a generous, even layer of the cheese and salsa mixture over the tortilla, leaving about 1/2 inch of space around the edges.
Carefully roll the tortilla tightly from one end to the other, creating a compact log shape.
Repeat the spreading and rolling process with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Place the rolled tortillas on a plate and chill in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes to allow the filling to firm up.
Using a sharp knife, slice the chilled tortilla rolls into 1-inch bite-sized pieces.
Arrange the roll-ups on a serving platter and enjoy immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
