Serves: 8-10
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients
For the Roll-Ups:
- 4 large flour tortillas (burrito-sized)
- 8 slices cooked bacon , chopped
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup cream cheese , softened
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing (plus extra for dipping, optional)
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp onion powder
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper , to taste
- 1 green onion , thinly sliced (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the Creamy Filling
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, ranch dressing, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.
- Stir in half of the chopped bacon and half of the shredded cheddar cheese. Reserve the remaining bacon and cheese for topping.
Step 2: Assemble the Roll-Ups
- Lay out the flour tortillas on a clean surface.
- Spread an even layer of the creamy filling over each tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheddar cheese and chopped bacon evenly over the filling.
- Starting at one edge, tightly roll up each tortilla into a log shape. Press gently to seal.
Step 3: Slice and Cook
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease the skillet with cooking spray or butter.
- Place the rolled tortillas seam-side down in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side , or until golden brown and slightly crispy. You can also bake them in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes if you prefer a softer texture.
- Remove the roll-ups from the skillet and let them cool for 2-3 minutes.
Step 4: Slice and Serve
- Use a sharp knife to slice each roll-up into 1-inch pieces.
- Arrange the roll-ups on a serving platter and garnish with sliced green onions if desired.
- Serve warm with extra ranch dressing or your favorite dipping sauce on the side.
Tips for Success:
- Make ahead: Assemble the roll-ups a few hours in advance, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate until ready to cook.
- Add-ins: Customize the filling with diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, or jalapeños for extra flavor and crunch.
- Gluten-free option: Use gluten-free tortillas if needed.
