Instructions

  1. Add cream cheese, sour cream, salsa, taco seasoning, and garlic powder to a small bowl. Mix together until smooth. Add the chilies and cheese and stir.
  2. Scoop ½-¾ cup of the mixture onto each 10-inch tortilla. Spread the mixture to cover the tortilla.
  3. Roll each tortilla like you would a jelly roll. Line them up, seam side down, in a baking dish. Cover the dish and place it in the fridge to chill for 2 hours overnight.
  4. After they have chilled slice each tortilla roll into 1-inch pieces. Place them side by side on a serving tray so that you can see the rolled layers. Serve with salsa.

Notes

  • Make ahead of time. Slice the rolls up to 24 hours in advance and keep them covered with plastic wrap in the fridge.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container, with plastic directly on top to keep them from drying out, and keep them in the refrigerator for about 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
