Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces low-fat or fat-free cream cheese softened
  • 1/¼ cup salsa plus more for dipping
  • 1 ½ teaspoons chili powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup fresh baby spinach
  • ½ red bell pepper cut into thin strips
  • ½ yellow bell pepper cut into thin strips
  • Six (8 inch) flour tortillas

Instructions
 

  • In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, salsa, chili powder and salt.
  • Trim each tortilla to roughly 6 ½-inches square. Spread two to three tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture on a tortilla.
  • Arrange spinach and colored peppers in the center of the tortilla.
  • Roll the tortilla up tightly and wrap it in plastic wrap.
  • Repeat for the remaining tortillas. Refrigerate the rolls for one to six hours (one hour minimum).
  • Right before serving, slice the rolls crosswise into four ½-inch pieces. Spoon extra salsa into a bowl for dipping.

Notes

Nutrition Tip
  • Salsa is low in calories and high in vitamins A and C. It’s a healthy dip that counts as a vegetable.
Prep Tip
  • Use leftover taco seasoning instead of chili powder or salt if you have it.
  • Use one bell pepper of any color instead of ½ red and ½ yellow.
Change it Up
  • Make breakfast rolls. Use apple butter instead of, or in addition to cream cheese and  chopped fruit instead of veggies. Omit the spices.
