Ingredients
- 5 pieces large flour tortillas
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 cup corn kernels (canned or fresh)
- 1 cup diced red bell pepper
- 0.5 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 0.5 cup medium salsa
- 0.25 cup green onions, sliced
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, sour cream, and taco seasoning. Mix until smooth and evenly blended.
Step 2
Lay a flour tortilla on a clean flat surface. Spread a thin, even layer of the cream cheese mixture over the entire surface of the tortilla.
Step 3
Sprinkle a small amount of shredded cheddar cheese, black beans, corn kernels, diced red bell pepper, cilantro, and green onions over the cream cheese layer. Make sure to distribute the toppings evenly.
Step 4
Add a small amount of salsa or drizzle it lightly over the toppings, making sure not to over-saturate the tortilla.
Step 5
Carefully roll the tortilla tightly from one side to the other to form a log shape. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and toppings until all ingredients are used.
Step 6
Once all the tortillas are rolled, use a sharp knife to slice each roll into 1-inch pieces to create bite-sized pinwheels.
Step 7
Arrange the pinwheels on a serving platter, garnish with additional cilantro if desired, and serve immediately!
