Cream Cheese-Olive Roll-Ups image

These are easy to make, plan ahead the rolled tortillas need to chill for a few hours before slicing, watch the garlic amount adding in too much will overpower all other ingredients, the garlic flavor will intensify with chilling time, I would suggest no more than 2 teaspoons --- Mexi-blend shredded cheese may be used in place of the cheddar, prep time includes chilling time

Time 2h

Yield 8 tortillas

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 -2 teaspoon fresh minced garlic
1/3 cup mayonnaise (do not use salad dressing)
2/3 cup pitted green olives, finely chopped
1 (2 1/4 ounce) can pitted black olives, finely chopped
5 -6 green onions, finely chopped
1/2-1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper (or to taste)
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (might use more or less)
8 (10 inch) flour tortillas

Steps:

  • Hand-squeeze out as much excess moisture in the olives as possible before chopping, and make certain to chop finely.
  • In a bowl combine cream cheese with garlic, mayonnaise, green and black olives, green onions and black pepper; mix to combine well.
  • Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture over each tortilla, then sprinkle a small amount cheddar cheese over the top of the cream cheese.
  • Roll up each tortilla as tightly as possible.
  • Place each tortilla onto a plate.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and chill for a couple of hours or up to 24 hours (a longer chilling time will only improve on the flavor).
  • Slice each tortilla into about 1-inch pieces.
