Ingredients
- 8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries, coarsely chopped
- 1/4 cup green onions, finely sliced
- 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch)
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional Add-ins:
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
- Drizzle of honey for sweetness
- Fresh herbs like dill or parsley for color
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, mix cream cheese and feta until smooth. Add cranberries, green onions, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well.
- Spread the Mixture: Lay out a tortilla and spread the filling evenly to the edges using a spatula.
- Roll It Up: Roll the tortilla tightly from one end to the other to form a log. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
- Chill: Wrap each roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or overnight) to firm up.
- Slice and Serve: Unwrap and cut each roll into 3/4-inch slices. Arrange on a platter and serve chilled or at room temperature.
Notes
- Use softened cream cheese for smooth spreading.
- Chill before slicing for cleaner, neater cuts.
- Don’t overfill the tortillas — too much filling can cause tearing.
- Use fresh tortillas to prevent cracking while rolling.
- Make up to 24 hours in advance and store in the fridge until serving.
