Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 8 ounces softened cream cheese
- 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 1/3 cup fresh chives, chopped
- 1 1/2 cups dried cranberries
Wrap
- 4 large flour tortillas (10 inches each)
Instructions
- Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture: Place the softened cream cheese in a small bowl and beat it until fluffy and smooth to create a creamy base for the filling.
- Mix the Ingredients: Add the crumbled feta cheese, chopped fresh chives, and dried cranberries to the whipped cream cheese. Stir well until all ingredients are evenly combined into a uniform spread.
- Spread and Roll: Lay out each flour tortilla and spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the entire surface. Then, carefully roll each tortilla tightly into a log shape to keep the filling secure and create neat slices.
- Chill and Slice: Wrap each rolled tortilla tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the filling to firm up. Once chilled, unwrap and cut the rolls into slices of your desired thickness. Arrange the slices on a serving platter and serve chilled.
Notes
- For best results, soften the cream cheese to room temperature before mixing.
- These roll ups can be made a day in advance and refrigerated until ready to serve.
- Use fresh chives for a mild onion flavor; alternatively, green onions can be substituted.
- Feel free to swap dried cranberries for chopped dried apricots or cherries for a different fruity twist.
- To make it gluten-free, use gluten-free tortillas instead of flour tortillas.
