Cream Cheese Roll-Ups

Today was the last day of our six week pre-natal class, and we were on snack duty. Our friend June was in on it with us and she made some delicious preggo friendly sangria, I really should have taken a photo, it was pro. We brought some of the Chocolate Chip cookies I made on the weekend, and some Cream Cheese Roll-ups. People always love them, so I thought I'd post the "recipe" for others to enjoy. I use the term recipe loosely as I've just made it up, and am jotting down roughly what I use. Feel free to get creative.

CREAM CHEESE ROLL-UPS

INGREDIENTS

1 container of flavoured cream cheese (I use dill)
1 cup plain yogurt
1/2 cup spinach, chopped
1/2 cup cucumber, shredded
1/2 cup carrots, shredded
3 green onions, chopped
1 package of full size whole wheat wraps (or whatever flavour you like)

DIRECTIONS

• Mix the cream cheese and yogurt in a bowl, until well blended
• Add all the veggies and stir until well blended
• Put about 1/2 cup of mixture in the centre of a wrap
• Spread the mixture out, leaving a space at one end (this will be the end of the roll)
• Roll the wrap up like sushi and place on a plate, or dish with the end down
• Continue on until the mixture is gone (should be 5 wraps)
• Cover the wraps, and place in the fridge for a few hours
• Cut off the ends, and cut pieces about as thick as your thumb
• Serve and enjoy!

I've made these in the past with smoked salmon and dill cream cheese, amazing! Get creative and have fun.
