Introduction

These Vegetable Cream Cheese Tortilla Roll Ups make a fresh, flavorful snack or appetizer that’s easy to prepare. Loaded with crunchy veggies and creamy cheese, they’re perfect for parties or a quick bite.

The image shows eight pinwheel wraps cut into thick slices, arranged closely on a wooden surface. Each wrap has three visible layers: the outer layer is a light yellow tortilla with a soft texture, rolled tightly. The middle layer is creamy white spread, mixed with small colorful bits of finely chopped red tomatoes, orange carrots, green onions, and small green broccoli pieces, creating a marbled effect inside. The vegetables and spread are evenly distributed in each swirl, making the pinwheels look fresh and vibrant. The wooden surface beneath adds warmth and contrast to the bright, creamy wraps. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

1 cup chopped veggies: broccoli, carrots, red bell pepper
4 oz cream cheese (softened)

1/3 cup mayo
1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/4 tsp dried dill
1/4 tsp salt

1/8 tsp black pepper
2 large burrito-sized flour tortillas
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese

2 tbsp chopped green onion

Instructions

Step 1: Choose and chop your veggies. Mince them small so each bite has a little bit of everything.
Step 2: Allow the cream cheese to soften for easy mixing. In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, mayo, garlic powder, dried dill, salt, and pepper until smooth.

Step 3: Microwave the tortillas for 15-20 seconds to make rolling easier. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over each tortilla.
Step 4: Sprinkle the chopped veggies, grated cheddar cheese, and chopped green onion evenly over the cream cheese layer.
Step 5: Starting at one edge, roll the tortilla tightly until you reach the opposite side. The cream cheese will help hold it together. Secure with toothpicks if needed.

Step 6: Chill the roll ups in the freezer for 20 minutes to set. For make-ahead convenience, wrap tightly and refrigerate overnight.
Step 7: Slice into pinwheels and serve.

Tips & Variations

Use finely diced veggies to ensure the roll ups are easy to bite through and evenly flavored.

Try swapping mayo for Greek yogurt for a lighter spread.
Add fresh herbs like parsley or chives for extra brightness.
For extra protein, include slices of deli turkey or ham before rolling.

Storage

Store leftovers wrapped tightly in plastic wrap or an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To serve, you can eat cold or let sit at room temperature for a few minutes. Avoid freezing after rolling as the texture may change.

FAQs

Can I use other veggies in these roll ups?

Yes, feel free to substitute or add other crunchy vegetables like cucumbers, celery, or snap peas based on your preference and seasonal availability.

How far in advance can I prepare these?
