Southwest Cheese Roll-ups

 
  • 3/4 cup (3 ounces) shredded Kerrygold Reduced Fat Aged Cheddar Cheese
  • 1/2 cup corn kernels (drained if canned)
  • 1/4 cup chopped red or green bell pepper
  • 2 tablespoons chopped green onion
  • 1/2 teaspoon Southwest seasoning*
  • Dash of hot sauce, optional
  • 2 (10-inch) tortillas (chipotle, sun-dried tomato or whole wheat)
  • 1/2 cup vegetarian refried beans
  • 2 cups shredded green or red leaf lettuce
  • 4 ounces cooked skinless, boneless chicken sliced (from leftover rotisserie chicken or grilled the night before), optional

* Substitution: 1/4 teaspoon chili powder and 1/4 teaspoon cumin

In a medium bowl, combine cheese, corn, red pepper, onion, seasoning and hot sauce if used. Mix. Set aside. Spread each tortilla with half the refried beans, leaving a 1-inch edge without beans. Top each tortilla with lettuce, chicken (if used), and cheese-corn mixture, dividing equally. Fold each tortilla about 1 inch on two opposite sides toward the inside, then roll. Wrap well in plastic wrap, and pack to carry. Makes 2 sandwiches.

Variations: Try other Kerrygold cheeses such as Dubliner, Blarney Castle, Swiss or Aged or Reserve Cheddar Cheese.
