Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 4 tortillas (8-inch)
- 8 ounces (226 grams) cream cheese
- 3/4 cup (180 milliliters) feta cheese
Fruit and Herbs:
- 1 1/2 cups (360 milliliters) dried cranberries
- 1/3 cup (80 milliliters) green onions
Optional Sweetener:
- 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) sugar
Instructions
- Whip cream cheese until velvety and uniform in texture.
- Gently fold cranberries, feta cheese, green onions, and sugar into the cream cheese mixture, ensuring even distribution.
- Evenly spread the prepared filling across the surface of each tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Carefully roll each tortilla into a compact cylindrical shape, applying gentle pressure to create tight, secure logs.
- Individually encase each roll in clear plastic wrap, twisting the ends to seal completely.
- Refrigerate the wrapped rolls for a minimum of 1 hour or up to 24 hours to allow flavors to meld and filling to set.
- Remove plastic wrap and slice each log into bite-sized pinwheels, approximately 1-inch thick, using a sharp knife for clean cuts.
Notes
- Soften cream cheese at room temperature for easier mixing and smoother texture.
- Customize by swapping dried cranberries with other chopped dried fruits like apricots or cherries for variety.
- For a lighter version, use low-fat cream cheese and whole wheat tortillas to reduce calories.
- Make these roll-ups ahead of time and store in the refrigerator, perfect for meal prep or last-minute party snacks.
