Ranch Roll-ups

These are delicious!

  • Eight large flour tortillas, burrito-size.
    I think the ones we get are about 9 inches across.  Using this size rather than the very small ones will eliminate so many "end" pieces.  
  • ham, turkey, and/or pepperoni
  • 1 8oz. block of cream cheese
  • 1 packet of dry ranch dip/dressing mix
  • ¼ cup green pepper, finely chopped (about 1/3 of a pepper)
  • ¼ cup onion, finely chopped (about 1/4 of a medium onion)
  • lettuce, optional
NOTE:  If you use rectangle ham as in the picture, 12 slices will be enough.  (1½ each tortilla).  If you use thinner, round ham, you may want several slices.
One 6 oz package of pepperoni looks like enough for an entire batch if you put about 10 pepperonis on a tortilla (check serving size info on package), but we usually make some of all three meats, so we have never actually counted everything out.

Actually, that ham needed to be over to the side,
and an additional half piece beside it.

►Divide the cream cheese into several chunks and heat in a microwavable dish - about 1 ½ minutes, stirring every 30 seconds or so.
--Add in the ranch dip mix, peppers, and onions.
--Mix well.

►Spread a spoonful of the ranch mixture onto the tortilla, making sure to get all the way to the sides that will be the "ends" after you roll.


►Place a slice or two of ham, turkey, or slices of pepperoni on the ranch mixture.  We like to put lettuce on the turkey ones.
Be sure to get some mixture and meat all the way to the edges that will be the "ends."
In the pic above, this wasn't done.  We now use 1½ slices to get the tortilla covered across.  The ends all get eaten.  =)
When rolled up, if needed, smear on a little more mixture on the last edge to make the roll stay closed.  Lay on a plate edge side down.

►Refrigerate for about an hour before slicing.
You may be able to get about 10 slices from each tortilla.  Or simply cut in half and eat it that way.  =)
Store in refrigerator in air-tight container.

When sliced, a double batch fills up a 13-cup Ziploc or Glad container.

My whole family loves these.
