Ingredients

8 ounces Neufchatel (light) or regular cream cheese, softened
3 tablespoons light sour cream
10 ounce can RoTel Tomatoes, drained slightly
½ teaspoon minced garlic
½ teaspoon all-purpose seasoning salt (like Lawry's Seasoned Salt)
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
5 green onions (thinly sliced)
2.25 ounce can chopped olives
1 jalapeno (seeded as desired and diced (optional))
2 cups cooked shredded chicken (I use rotisserie chicken)
5 large burrito size flour tortillas or wraps in assorted flavors

Steps:

Use a mixer to combine cream cheese, sour cream, diced tomatoes, garlic, and seasonings. Use a spoon to stir in cheese, green onion, olives, jalapeno (if using), and shredded chicken.
Divide mixture between the tortillas, spreading out evenly leaving about a ½-inch border at the edge. Roll up tightly. Wrap rollups tightly in plastic wrap and transfer to the refrigerator to chill for at least an hour or until ready to serve.
Remove from refrigerator and use a sharp knife to slice into 2-inch pieces.
