Instructions
- In a medium bowl, add cream cheese, sour cream, and taco seasoning and stir until combined. Fold in tomatoes, cheese, scallions, and olives.
- Working with one tortilla at a time, spread about 1/2 cup of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the tortilla, going all the way to the edge. Roll the tortilla tightly and wrap in plastic.
- Continue with the remaining tortillas until all have been assembled and wrapped in plastic. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. To serve, trim any unfilled ends away. Slice each tortilla into 8 equal pieces.
Notes
- Taco seasoning: A store-bought packet works great. To DIY a packet's worth of homemade taco seasoning, whisk together 1 tablespoon chili powder, 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin, 3/4 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, and salt to taste (I like 1/2 teaspoon). Add 1 teaspoon cornstarch if you prefer a thickener in your taco seasoning.
- Cheddar cheese: Or for something with a bit more south-of-the-border flair, look for a bag of shredded cheese at your supermarket labeled "Mexican blend" or "Mexican-style."
- Flour tortillas: Right 8-inch tortillas will do the trick for one batch of Taco Tortilla Roll Ups. If you prefer larger, 10-inch tortillas, plan on filling about 5 of them.
- Yield: Assuming you trim away ends and then cut each roll up into 8 pieces, you'll have 64 pieces. It's enough for 16 servings, 4 pieces each.
- Storage: Store leftovers covered (or wrapped) tightly in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Make ahead: Taco Tortilla Roll Ups are best after being chilled for 2 hours or up to overnight. The flavor gets even better!
- Freezer: These freeze well! Transfer unsliced, plastic-wrapped roll ups to a freezer-safe bag and freeze for up to 1 month. Thaw overnight at room temperature, slice, and serve.
