Cream Cheese-Olive Roll-Ups - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 -2 teaspoon fresh minced garlic
1/3 cup mayonnaise (do not use salad dressing)
2/3 cup pitted green olives, finely chopped
1 (2 1/4 ounce) can pitted black olives, finely chopped
5 -6 green onions, finely chopped
1/2 - 1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper (or to taste)
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (might use more or less)
8 (10 inch) flour tortillas
Preparation
-
Hand-squeeze out as much excess moisture in the olives as possible before chopping, and make certain to chop finely.
In a bowl combine cream cheese with garlic, mayonnaise, green and black olives, green onions and black pepper; mix to combine well.
Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture over each tortilla, then sprinkle a small amount cheddar cheese over the top of the cream cheese.
Roll up each tortilla as tightly as possible.
Place each tortilla onto a plate.
Cover with plastic wrap and chill for a couple of hours or up to 24 hours (a longer chilling time will only improve on the flavor).
Slice each tortilla into about 1-inch pieces.
