Ingredients
Vegetables:
- 1 cup diced broccoli
- 1 cup diced carrots
- 1 cup diced red bell pepper
Cream Cheese Filling:
- 4 ounces softened cream cheese
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon dried dill
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
Additional:
- 2 large flour tortillas meant for burritos
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons sliced green onions
Instructions
- Prepare the Vegetables and Ingredients
Begin by choosing and chopping your favorite veggies. Mince them extra small to ensure each bite contains a bit of everything. Allow the cream cheese to soften at room temperature, which makes it easier to mix.
- Mix the Cream Cheese Filling
In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese with mayonnaise, garlic powder, dill, salt, and pepper. Mix until the ingredients are well combined and the consistency is smooth.
- Prepare and Fill the Tortillas
To make rolling easier, place the tortillas in the microwave for 15-20 seconds to warm them slightly. Once warm, spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over each tortilla. Sprinkle the minced veggies, cheese, and chopped onion evenly on top of the cream cheese layer.
- Roll and Secure the Tortillas
Start at one edge of the tortilla and roll it tightly until you reach the opposite side. The cream cheese mixture will help the tortilla stick together. Secure the rolled tortilla with a toothpick or two to keep it intact. Place the rolls in the freezer for 20 minutes to let them set, or chill overnight in the fridge if preparing in advance.
- Slice and Serve
Once the rolls have set, remove the toothpicks and slice each roll into pinwheels. Arrange them on a platter and serve. Enjoy these tasty bites as a snack or a light meal!
