"These are easy to make, plan ahead the rolled tortillas need to chill for a few hours before slicing, watch the garlic amount adding in too much will overpower all other ingredients, the garlic flavor will intensify with chilling time, I would suggest no more than 2 teaspoons --- Mexi-blend shredded cheese may be used in place of the cheddar, prep time includes chilling time"

  1. This was great for an office party. I added ham slices to each tortilla and substituted regular cream cheese for green onion and chive cream cheese. Since I did that I also cut out the green onions. I bought the black olives already chopped in a can. Might use less green olives next time as they were pretty salty. So quick and easy to make!

  3. These are wonderful! I made 2 batches of these on Friday for a surprise birthday party on Saturday night and they were gone before I knew it. The flavor was fantastic!! The only thing that I did differently was to mix in the shredded cheddar cheese instead of sprinkling it over the top of the cream cheese mixture. Thanks for a great recipe!

  4. I found a recipe for roll-ups back in 1984 when no one had heard of or had eaten these little treasures. One of my colleagues named them little ditties. Over the years I lost the recipe and never ate one that was as I remembered them. This recipe is as close to the original and turned out delicious. Made a couple of changes - did not put in grated cheese (was not in original recipe) and added a cayenne pepper (the original either used cayenne or tobasco). They were delicious. My sister's in-laws stopped by and went home with a baggie full - Sue's not a big eater, so this was truly a compliment. Kitten, I follow your recipes and again, I was very pleased. Thanks

  5. This is an excellent recipe. I did switch some things around though. Instead of the black olives, I used one can of black beans,drained. I also added some seasoning salt to the cream cheese mixture.
