Taste of Life: Chili Cheese Pinwheels

Ingredients

8 oz. cream cheese
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 (4 oz.) can diced green chilies
6 green onions, diced
1 cup chopped red bell pepper
1 can black olives, chopped
6 to 8 large flour tortillas

Preparation

Combine cream cheese, cheddar cheese, chilies, green onions, bell peppers and olives in medium bowl. Spread cup cheese mixture over each tortilla or until desired thickness; then roll them up. Wrap each roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours. Remove plastic wrap, slice each roll into 2-inch pieces and serve.

For a better tasting pinwheel, refrigerate wraps overnight before slicing. Ingredients blend better over time.
