BLT Rollers

For our crafting at the cabin recipe, I used a recipe I found off the Kraft Recipes site -- http://www.kraftrecipes.com/recipes/blt-rollers-124708.aspx.  Very easy, and very delicious.

Here's what you'll need (via kraft recipes):

First , I would recommend doubling this recipe if you're making it for a party.  Once batch is really not enough for more than four people or so.

• 4 oz. Cream Cheese
• 1/4 Cup Mayo
• 8 slices Bacon, cooked, crumbled (I just purchased the bacon crumbles you can find near the Baco Bits in the grocery store -- much easier and tasted just as good!)
• 1/2 cup chopped tomoatoes
•  2 flour tortillas (I used tomato tortillas)
• 1/2 cup shredded romaine lettuce (I used spinach leaves)

Here's what you do:

• Mix cream cheese and mayo in medium bowl.  Add bacon and tomatoes; mix well.

• Spread onto tortillas; top with lettuce/spinach.  Roll up tightly.
• Cut each into 7 diagonal slices.  This seemed very small to me.  So, I cut each into about four non-diagonal slices.  By doing that they sat better in the serving container, and you got more of a taste of the BLT flavor.  

These were delicious, and I would definitely make them again!

Healthified spicy wraps

Review by Lyndee:

4-5 Burrito shells -depending how thick you want them (you could use a low carb variety too)

1 package of cream cheese (I used reduced fat)

2 green onions

Small can of black olives (optional)

Small can of green chilies

Cilantro to taste – I don’t really measure it because it’s hard to measure cilantro.  I used a small handful. 2 tbsp.(ish) of hot sauce (I used Siracha hot sauce)

¼ cup shredded cheddar cheese (I used 2%)

Mix everything except the burrito shells, cream cheese and shredded cheddar in a food chopper for just a few pulses.  Mix with the cream cheese, spread on the shells, sprinkle with shredded cheese.  Refrigerate for a couple hours, cut and enjoy! 

These were great. I don't even like olives but they didn't bother me in this recipe at all.  Very fun finger food for a party or as a wrap for lunch. You could add chicken breast too.
