Roasted Pepper Roll-Ups
Promote dairy in this delightful treat. Light cream cheese holds these pretty appetizers together. Use whole wheat tortillas for added fiber and to make the easy appetizer or snacks diabetic-friendly.
Ingredients
-
1/2 of an 8-ounce package reduced-fat cream cheese (Neufchatel), softened
-
4 ounces soft goat cheese (chevre)
-
1 tablespoon fat-free milk
-
1 small clove garlic, minced
-
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
-
1/2 cup purchased roasted red sweet peppers, drained and finely chopped
-
1/4 cup snipped fresh basil
-
8 8-inch whole wheat or plain flour tortillas
-
2 cups packed fresh spinach leaves
Directions
1.
For filling, in a medium bowl, beat cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add goat cheese, milk, garlic, and black pepper; beat until smooth. Stir in red peppers and basil.
2.
To assemble, divide filling among tortillas, spreading to within 1/2 inch of the edges. Arrange spinach leaves over filling to cover. Carefully roll tortillas up tightly. Cover and chill roll-ups for 2 to 24 hours. Tote in an insulated container with ice packs.
3.
To serve, use a sharp knife to cut roll-ups crosswise into 48 pieces. Makes 24 servings.
