Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 4 tortillas (12 inch)
  • 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
  • 2 cups shredded chicken breast
  • 1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese (shredded)
  • 1/4 cup buffalo sauce (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tbsp ranch seasoning

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded chicken breast, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, buffalo sauce, and ranch seasoning. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated, creating a creamy, spicy filling.
  2. Assemble the roll ups: Lay out each tortilla flat and evenly spread about one quarter of the prepared mixture onto each tortilla. Use a spatula or the back of a spoon to create a thin, even layer covering the entire surface.
  3. Roll and chill: Starting from one edge, tightly roll the tortilla until you reach the opposite end, forming a snug cylinder. Wrap each rolled tortilla in cling wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour to allow them to firm up, making slicing easier.
  4. Slice and serve: Remove the chilled rolls from the fridge and unwrap them. Cut off the uneven ends to make clean edges, then slice each roll into 1-inch pieces. Serve immediately or keep chilled until ready to enjoy.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of buffalo sauce based on your preferred spice level.
  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to easily mix the filling.
  • Shredded cooked chicken can be leftover rotisserie chicken or freshly cooked and shredded.
  • For a lower sodium option, use low-sodium buffalo sauce and reduced-sodium ranch seasoning.
  • These roll ups can be made a few hours ahead and kept refrigerated until serving.
