Chicken Enchilada Dip Rollups

Need a great appetizer for a party? Maybe you just want something a little different for lunch or dinner. These chicken enchilada dip rollups are so delicious and you just have to try them. They are perfect for a gathering, but work well just as a meal at home. I like to make several of these and keep them in the refrigerator all week to take to lunch. You could serve a few of these in your lunch pail with a fresh garden salad and a piece of fruit.

I hope you like these scrumptious rollups!

Ingredients:
1 8 oz package light cream cheese, softened (I use fat free but would recommend you use light for optimal results)
3/4 cup shredded reduced fat mexican cheese blend
1/2 teaspoon garlic, minced
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
red cayenne pepper, to taste (no more than 1/4 teaspoon)
salt and pepper, to taste
Shredded chicken (a rotisserie chicken works great for this) - about 1 - 1 1/2 cups chicken
1/4 to 1/2 bunch of fresh cilantro - depends on how much you prefer
4 green onions, chopped
10 ounce can Rotel - drained
1 package jalapeno cheddar tortillas OR any tortilla you prefer (I use la tortilla factory wheat tortillas to make this dish healthier)

Directions:
-Mix the cream cheese and shredded cheese together until blended.
-Add the remaining ingredients and mix well.
-Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour.
-Place desired amount onto a tortilla and spread out to the edges using a knife or spatula.
-Roll tortilla up and cut into slices.

Enjoy! :)
