Texas Tortilla Twisters




Source of Recipe


Given to me by a friend, Linda - from the Amarillo Globe-News, Amarillo, Texas






Recipe Introduction


This can be assembled the day before and sliced into pinwheels just before serving.





List of Ingredients



• 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
  
• 1 carton (8 ounces) sour cream
  
• 5 green onions, chopped ( green and white parts)
  
• 1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies, drained
  
• 1/2 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese (about 2 ounces)
  
• 2 tablespoons chopped black olives
  
• 1 package (12 count) large flour tortillas
  
• 1 jar picante sauce
  






Instructions



1. In a food processor (I use my hand mixer), combine cream cheese, sour cream, green onions, chilies, Cheddar cheese and olives; process until smooth. Spread mixture on flat tortillas. Roll up tortillas. Wrap each rolled tortilla individually in damp paper towels. Place in airtight plastic bags; refrigerate until ready to serve.
   
   
2. To serve, remove rolled tortillas from plastic bags and paper toweling. Slice each rolled tortilla crosswise into 1 inch pieces or pinwheels. Serve on wooden picks with a bowl of picante sauce on the side for dipping.
