The first time I had a tortilla rollup was a summer evening around the campfire...with the dietzman's.
My Friend Cheri shared the recipe with me and I have made them on several occasions.
Yesterday I whipped some up for a Christmas party rick & I atttended. I guess others shared my enthusiasm, cuz only a few were left on the plate at the end of the night.
Ingredients
It was Cheri's daughter Cara who first showed me what to do with these
long stemmed green things (green onions)
I really never knew what people did with these. Thanks Cara
Putting it all together
Cuttin' off the ends
but not wasting them...
they're still yummy to the one who's making them.
After tightly rolling them up, you now roll them up in a damp paper towel
and place them in a baggie, which you then put in the fridge.
Preferably overnight, but a few hours works too.
Finished product,
with a side of salsa for dipping.
ENJOY ! ! !

ReplyDeleteoh yum, I want one really bad now. I remember helping to make those with Cheri and Cara at their old house. Also, I recently learned that green onions are called scallions. Cara/Cheri taught me how to cut them too! Man, the things we've learned from the Dietman's! :)
