Ingredients
Scale
Garlic Butter Mixture
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Rollups
- 6 large flour tortillas
- 12 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly and set aside to allow the flavors to meld.
- Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 190°C (375°F) to ensure it is hot enough for baking the rollups to a crispy finish.
- Arrange Tortillas: Lay the flour tortillas flat on a clean surface, making them ready for layering.
- Brush Tortillas: Generously brush each tortilla with the prepared garlic butter mixture, ensuring an even coating for optimal flavor.
- Add Fillings: Sprinkle crumbled cooked bacon evenly over each tortilla, followed by a layer of shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses. Optionally, sprinkle chopped fresh chives on top for added freshness and color.
- Roll Tortillas: Starting at one end, tightly roll up each tortilla into a spiral shape to hold the fillings securely.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the rolled tortillas seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking and maintain shape during baking.
- Brush Tops: Brush the tops of the tortilla rollups with any remaining garlic butter mixture to enhance browning and flavor.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tortillas turn golden brown, crispy, and the cheese melts into a bubbly delight.
- Cool Slightly: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the rollups cool for a few minutes to firm up and avoid burns when slicing.
- Slice and Serve: Cut each rollup into bite-sized pieces, arrange them on a serving platter, and enjoy immediately while warm and savory.
Notes
- For best results, cook bacon until crisp before crumbling.
- You can substitute tortillas with whole wheat for a healthier variation.
- Chopped chives are optional but add a nice fresh touch.
- Serve with dipping sauces like ranch or ketchup for added flavor.
- Ensure rollups are baked just until golden to prevent drying out.
