Tortilla Roll-Ups
Tortilla roll-ups are often filled with a flavored cream cheese mixture and sliced into bite-size pieces. They can also be filled with deli meats and cheeses - anything you would put on a sandwich.
This recipe blends cream cheese with chopped green olives, scallions, and corned beef. Garlic powder and onion powder are added for seasoning.
How do you make tortilla roll-ups?
- Cream cheese - Always start with room-temperature cream cheese. It's much easier to blend other ingredients into the cream cheese when it is soft. The soft cream cheese mixture also spreads easily onto the tortillas.
- Tortillas - Use any variety of tortillas that you like. I love the spinach and sun-dried tomato varieties because they are so delicious, but they also add festive color during the holidays.
- Spreading the filling - Use about ¼ cup of cream cheese mixture per each 10-inch tortilla. Spread the mixture to the edge.
- Rolling the tortillas - Starting on one side, roll the tortillas tightly. No need to fold in the sides. The wonky ends will get cut off before slicing and serving.
- Chilling the tortillas - Wrap the tortillas in plastic wrap and chill for at least 4 hours or overnight. The roll-ups will firm up and be easier to slice.
- Slicing and serving - Cut off the uneven ends and set aside for snacking on later. Cut the tortillas into ½-inch slices. Arrange on a platter. Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container.
Can you make tortilla roll-ups ahead of time?
Tortilla roll-ups are the perfect make-ahead snack. The prepared tortillas need to be chilled, so it's best to make them a day ahead of time. On the day of your party, slice and serve. It's that simple!
These savory bites are always a hit at parties. This easy, make-ahead recipe is just the ticket during the chaos of the holidays. For smaller gatherings, simply halve the recipe.

I haven't made this but the filling looks similar to a dip my mom made and served with crackers when I was younger. She passed away over 20 years ago and the recipe was lost. I'll try this as a base...looks yummy as a roll-up.

Jessica,
Memories are wonderful. My aunt used to make a corned beef cheese ball that was similar to this. I hope you enjoy this!
