Ingredients
- 227 grams cream cheese
- 60 grams sour cream
- 120 grams shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 small diced red bell pepper
- 1 small diced green bell pepper
- 1 small diced jalapeño (seeded for less heat)
- 30 grams chopped fresh cilantro
- 15 grams taco seasoning
- 4 pieces large flour tortillas
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and sour cream. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Step 2
Add the shredded cheddar cheese, diced red bell pepper, diced green bell pepper, diced jalapeño, chopped cilantro, and taco seasoning to the bowl. Mix until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Step 3
Lay one flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a thin, even layer of the cream cheese mixture across the entire tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
Step 4
Carefully roll the tortilla into a tight spiral, starting from one end. Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and cream cheese mixture.
Step 5
Wrap each rolled tortilla in plastic wrap to help them hold their shape. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up.
Step 6
Once chilled, unwrap the tortillas and use a sharp knife to slice them into 1-inch thick spirals.
Step 7
Arrange the Mexican Party Spirals on a platter and serve. Optionally, garnish with extra cilantro or serve with salsa for dipping.
