Equipment
- plastic wrap
Ingredients
- 8 oz. cream cheese softened
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 ½ cups dried cranberries about a 6 oz package
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
- 4 flour tortillas 8-inch (soft taco size)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, feta, cranberries, and chives until evenly blended.
- Divide filling into 4 equal portions right in the bowl. Spread one portion onto a tortilla, leaving about ½ inch border around the edge.
- Roll tortilla tightly and wrap in plastic wrap. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
- Refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight to firm up.
- Unwrap, trim the ends, and slice each roll into 1-inch pinwheels. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Make ahead: Best eaten the day you slice them, but you can roll and refrigerate the night before.
- Cheese swap: Try goat cheese instead of feta for a milder version.
- Add crunch: Stir in chopped pecans or walnuts.
- Festive look: Add finely diced green bell pepper or use spinach wraps for red-and-green holiday color.
