Time 2h15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 c cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 c ripe olives, chopped
2 Tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
2 Tbsp scallion, chopped
1/2 tsp garlic powder
4 10" flour tortillas
red jalapenos, pickled

Steps:

  • 1. In medium mixing bowl, combine first 6 ingredients. Mix well.
  • 2. On each tortilla, spread about 1/2 cup of mixture. In center, place a row of jalapeno halves lengthwise across tortilla.
  • 3. Roll up jelly roll fashion and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 2 hours. Unwrap and cut each tortilla into 12 slices.
  • 4. Garnish slices with a star of guacamole if desired. (If you can't find red jalapenos, green is fine. The red just looks prettier.)
