4 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese
1/2 tablespoon blue cheese, crumbled
2 tablespoons green onions, diced
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and diced small
1 tablespoon roasted red pepper, diced small
1/8 teaspoon black pepper, to taste
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder, to taste
2 large flour tortillas (low-carb)
6 slices lean bacon (or turkey bacon)

Steps:

Mix all filling ingredients well. Spread filling over each tortilla, spreading to the edges. Tightly roll up tortillas to form a log. Wrap each tortilla securely with plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes to set.
Preheat oven to 400°F Place a sheet of parchment paper onto a baking sheet and set aside. Unwrap the rolls from the plastic wrap and trim off ends and discard (or eat). Slice the rolls into 8 slices.
Cut bacon slices in half and wrap around each appetizer overlapping just a bit. Secure the bacon to the wraps with toothpicks going thru just to the other side (this also serves as holders to pick up the appetizers later). If the bacon slice does not go all the way around the roll, place the loose ends facing down onto the parchment paper.
Bake for 30 minutes, until the bacon is crisp. Remove from the oven and arrange on a serving platter.
