Just like the Ranch Snack Crackers, these guys are great at all kind of events that usually surround the holidays. Maybe you’ve just eaten a big ham dinner the day before and want something small for lunch. Maybe you’re looking for a simple appetizer for a New Year’s Eve party or even a Mexican Fiesta! This could be it!
These are simple – as simple or complex as you want to make them. And let me tell you, I go pretty simple on them. But I’ve included optional ingredients that you can also use – just depends on your tastes! These also are a timer saver because they’re best (I think) when made the day before or earlier in the day. Just a little preparation saves you a lot of panic!
And they’re great because you can make as many or as few as you want. Just want 1 for yourself? Cool! Need to feed 50 people? Cool! Whatever you need!
Tortilla Roll Ups
Ingredients
- Tortillas
- Cream cheese
- Garlic powder
- Salsa (as mild or as hot as you want!)
- Cheese (I think finely shredded works best and you can try different flavors – cheddar, taco, monterrey jack, etc)
- Optional – chopped black olives, green chiles or chopped jalapenos
Instructions
- On a tortilla, spread a light layer of cream cheese. You might be tempted to go too full, so for your first roll up, go LIGHT until you know how full you’re making them.
- Lightly sprinkle some garlic powder on top.
- Spread some salsa on top. Again, a little goes a long way.
- Optional – spread black olives, green chiles or jalapenos on top as well.
- Spread some cheese on top. Little bit!
- Roll it up.
- Cut into slices. Maybe 4-5 per roll up.
- Refrigerate for a couple of hours or longer.
- Eat!
