Ingredient notes:

Mix the filling with cream cheese and mayonnaise for a rich base. Add cheddar cheese to enhance the richness and a bit of sharpness to the dish.

Bacon bits offer a savory undertone and deepen the flavor profile with a slight smokiness.

Silvered almonds will help balance the notes with a nutty flavor and offer crunch for the filling, pairing well with the bacon bits.

Expert tips:

This dish is better served cool, so it’s recommended to use room-temperature tortillas. You can pan-sear the tortillas if you want them to be crispy, but they may crack when rolling.

Chill the rolls for at least 2 hours in your fridge before slicing to make them firmer and hold their shape.

Spread the filling evenly from center to edge to ensure even flavor with every bite.

If you want clean slices, use a serrated knife.

Servings recommendations:

Each slice carries about 120 kcal, average for an appetizer. Pairs well with sparkling water, lemonade, or crisp white wine.

Arrange slices on a platter and garnish with spring onions or paprika flakes for presentation. Suitable for occasions like potlucks, holiday parties, or tailgates.

Can I make these rolls gluten-free? Absolutely, you can try gluten-free tortillas, also check if the bacon and other ingredients used in the recipe are certified gluten-free.
