Recipes From Living the American Backwoods Cabin Life

Anytime Roll Up Appetizers


I've made these easy roll ups for Christmas and brought them to our neighbors house for a Super Bowl party this month. They are always a hit and always gone by the end of the night.


Here are some of the characters in this recipe. There will be a link at the bottom of this post to print the recipe.


The colorful character in this recipe is the peppers. Choose the colors that match the party. Are you making them for Christmas? Use red and green bell peppers. Are you making them for Easter? Use spring colors like yellow and orange bell peppers. For Super Bowl, I was cheering on the Falcons, so I used more red bell peppers than green. It didn't work though - the Falcons lost.


Anyways, you need a cup of finely chopped bell peppers.




Then you take two green onions and finely chop them up.



Mix the peppers and onions together.


Take one package of ranch dressing mix and add to the two 8 ounce packages of softened creme cheese.


Mix well.


Add black pepper and stir.


Take one of your five flour tortillas and...


...spread with the creme cheese mixture.



Sprinkle the pepper mixture...


...until covered like this.


Roll up tightly.



Place on plastic wrap...



...and roll up tucking the ends under.


Repeat with remaining four flour tortillas, then place in the refrigerator for at least an hour or until it's close to party time.


Slice into bite size pieces. I separated the layers with wax paper so they wouldn't stick to each other.



Yum!! Enjoy watching these babies disappear!!
