Festive Party Spirals

We had a family Christmas party today and I needed bring an appetizer.  Well, I decided to take a favorite of mine-the party spiral- and make it a little more festive.  Have you ever seen the green tortillas in the bread aisle?   I had never tried them, but thought they would look so pretty with bright red pimientos in that cream cheese center.  They were delicious and looked adorable assembled as a little wreath on my platter!  If you want to see my Ranch Party Spiral recipe or learn how to make them, go HERE.  I just changed a few things from that recipe to come up with this one!

Simply arrange them on the rim of a plate to make your wreath.  The bottom has two rows of spirals and I put one row on top.

 

 

Festive Party Spirals

6 - 10" green tortillas ( I used Mission brand- Garden Spinach Herb)

2 8 oz. pkgs. cream cheese, softened

2 green onions, chopped (both white and green parts)

1/2 pkg. dry Ranch dressing mix

4 oz. chopped pimientos, DRAINED WELL (I let mine drain on paper towels to get them very dry.)

 

Mix cream cheese, chopped green onion, and 1/2 pkg. Ranch dressing mix in medium bowl.  Spread mixture evenly among the 6 tortillas.  Spread the mixture over entire tortilla.  Sprinkle pimientos evenly among the 6 prepared tortillas.  (I wish I wold have taken a pic of the inside of the tortilla before rolling.  I would say no more than a teaspoon of pimientos per tortilla.  It really doesn't take very many.)  Roll each tortilla tightly.  Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour (or even overnight).  Cut each tortilla into 3/4" slices.  Keep refrigerated!

Bacon & Swiss Breakfast Burritos

One of my favorite things to order at one of our local tea rooms is Quiche Lorraine.  I couldn't help but think these flavors would be a great variation for the breakfast burrito recipe!  I ended up only making a half a batch because I didn't want to be stuck with a large batch of burritos I didn't care for!  Well, I should've made the big batch because I ended up making more today!  They are so yummy!!  These would even make a great lunch or supper as well!!  Hope you enjoy!!  I've added the recipe below but if you would like a more detailed recipe on how to make the burritos and get them ready for the freezer click here!

Bacon & Swiss Breakfast Burritos

6 slices bacon (cooked & crumbled)

2 green onions finely chopped (white & green parts)

6 eggs

6 T. milk

salt and pepper to taste

1 cup swiss cheese

8 flour tortillas

Whisk together eggs, milk, salt and pepper.  In a skillet sprayed with cooking spray, cook eggs over medium heat until set.  Add in bacon, onions, and cheese.  Cook just until cheese is melted.  Remove from heat and allow mixture to cool for 5-10 minutes.  Use a 1/3 cup of mixture for each tortilla.  Wrap in saran wrap and foil and freeze.  To reheat from frozen, place in microwave for 1 1/2 minutes.
