Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large flour tortillas, about 10 inches each
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 1/2 cups thinly sliced turkey
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup finely chopped fresh lettuce
Instructions
- Let the cream cheese soften at room temperature until smooth and easy to spread.
- Stir the cream cheese in a mixing bowl until creamy and lump free.
- Lay one tortilla flat on a clean cutting board.
- Spread a quarter of the cream cheese evenly over the tortilla, covering the surface from edge to edge.
- Layer sliced turkey evenly over the cream cheese.
- Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese across the turkey layer.
- Top with finely chopped lettuce, distributing it evenly.

Notes
- Chilling the rolls before slicing helps create clean, neat spirals.
