Brighten your holiday table with these irresistible Festive Tortilla Roll Ups—a colorful and flavorful appetizer that’s as easy to make as it is to enjoy. Soft, burrito-sized flour tortillas are spread with a creamy blend of tangy cream cheese, sour cream, and shredded cheddar cheese, then infused with the vibrant crunch of diced red and green bell peppers, savory green onions, and optional black olives. Seasoned to perfection with garlic, cumin, and fresh parsley, these no-cook roll ups are chilled for easy slicing, revealing their signature pinwheel pattern. Perfect for holiday parties, potlucks, or game-day gatherings, this quick-prep appetizer is a surefire crowd-pleaser that combines festive flair with delicious simplicity.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and sour cream. Mix until smooth and well blended.
Add shredded cheddar cheese, diced red and green bell peppers, chopped green onions, black olives (if using), parsley, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper to the cream cheese mixture. Stir thoroughly to distribute the ingredients evenly.
Lay one flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a thin, even layer of the cream cheese mixture over the entire tortilla, leaving about 1 cm of space around the edges.
Tightly roll the tortilla from one end to the other, forming a log. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Wrap each tortilla roll tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up.
Remove the rolls from the fridge and unwrap them. Using a sharp knife, slice each roll into 1- to 1.5-cm thick pieces. Discard the uneven ends if desired.
Arrange the sliced roll ups on a serving platter. Garnish with extra parsley for a festive touch, if desired.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
