Ingredients
- 1 ounce package cream cheese
- ½ cup sour cream
- ½ cup salsa (use a chunkier salsa, for texture - I used Pace)
- 2 tablespoons hidden valley ranch seasoning
- 2 teaspoons taco seasoning
- 1 ½ cups cheddar cheese (shredded, divided)
- 15-20 large black olives (roughly chopped)
- 4 large tortillas
Instructions
- Soften cream cheese. Beat cream cheese, sour cream, and ranch and taco seasonings together with an electric mixer.
- Add salsa, ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese, and black olives. Stir until just combined.
- Lay out a tortilla and spread the delicious mixture in a thin layer, leaving about a half-inch of the tortilla un-slathered around the edges (to prevent it from squishing out when rolling).
- Sprinkle a quarter of the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese on top. Roll the tortilla up, pressing firmly yet gently as you roll.
- Wrap the rolled tortilla securely in plastic wrap to help it keep its shape. Repeat 3 more times, or until you've used up all the filling.
- Refrigerate for at least 4-5 hours (or until firm) before cutting into approximately ½ inch pinwheels.
- Sample the ends. Serve the pretty ones.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Lay out a piece of plastic wrap underneath the tortilla before assembling it. After you roll the tortilla up all you have to do is wrap the plastic around it to secure it.
