Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables

  • 1 cup diced vegetables: broccoli, carrots, and red bell pepper

Spread

  • 4 ounces softened cream cheese
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper

Additional Ingredients

  • 2 large flour tortillas (burrito size)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons sliced green onions

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Vegetables and Ingredients: Begin by finely dicing 1 cup of assorted vegetables including broccoli, carrots, and red bell pepper. Ensure the pieces are small for even distribution and easy rolling. Soften 4 ounces of cream cheese by leaving it at room temperature, which will make mixing smoother.
  2. Mix the Cream Cheese Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese with 1/3 cup mayonnaise. Add 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon dried dill, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is well blended and smooth.
  3. Prepare and Fill the Tortillas: Warm the 2 large flour tortillas in the microwave for 15-20 seconds to make them more pliable for rolling. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over each tortilla. Then sprinkle the diced vegetables, 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese, and 2 tablespoons sliced green onions evenly over the cream cheese layer.
  4. Roll and Secure the Tortillas: Starting from one edge, tightly roll the tortilla until it reaches the other side. The cream cheese mixture acts as a glue to hold the roll together. Secure each roll with toothpicks to maintain shape. Place the rolls in the freezer for 20 minutes to firm up or refrigerate overnight if preparing ahead.
  5. Slice and Serve: Remove toothpicks and slice each roll into bite-sized pinwheels. Arrange them on a serving platter and enjoy as a tasty snack or light meal.

Notes

  • Chopping vegetables finely ensures easier rolling and even bites.
  • Softening cream cheese is key for smooth mixing and spreading.
  • Warming the tortillas makes them more pliable and less likely to crack when rolled.
  • You can prepare the rolls a day in advance; just keep them tightly wrapped and refrigerated.
  • Feel free to swap vegetables or use low-fat cream cheese and mayonnaise for a lighter version.
