How to make Veggie Cream Cheese Roll Ups

Since these veggie roll ups are the perfect way to use up extra vegetables from vegetable platters or other fresh appetizers, they are a great additional vegetarian appetizer option for any party. They are also quick to make, a perfect make-ahead dish, and easy to tote around!

Ingredients for Veggie Roll Ups

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 Ranch seasoning packet
  • 1 teaspoon dill weed
  • 2 cups finely chopped vegetables
    • We love broccoli, carrots, and bell peppers. You can also try out cauliflower, olives, and cucumbers.
    • For this recipe I choose to do 3/4 cup shredded carrots, 3/4 finely chopped broccoli, and 1/2 cup chopped red bell peppers.
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 Lavash Bread or flatbreads
    • These veggie roll ups can easily be turned into a veggie pizza tortilla roll ups. Simply substitute out the 4 lavash bread for 5 extra large 10-inch flour tortillas.
The ingredients to make veggie roll ups: lavash bread, ranch seasoning, cream cheese, dill weed, chopped red pepper, chopped broccoli, and shredded carrots and cheddar cheese.

Directions for Veggie Roll Ups

In a medium bowl, cream together the dill weed, Ranch seasoning packet, softened cream cheese, and sour cream. Then fold in your 2 cups of chopped vegetables and the shredded cheddar cheese.

  • The cream cheese mixure that goes into vegetable roll ups.
  • Next fold in the chopped peppers, broccoli, and the shredded carrots and cheddar cheese to the cream cheese and ranch seasoning mixture.
  • The glue to the vegetable roll ups: The cream cheese mixture mixed with all the veggies and cheese.

Then divide out the veggie and cream cheese mixture amongst your lavash bread(or tortillas) and spread it out evenly, edge to edge in a thin layer.

  • Divide the cream cheese and veggie mixture evenly into four parts and place them on the 4 lavash breads.
  • The cream cheese mixture spread evenly on top of the lavash bread edge to edge.

Gently roll each bread(or tortilla) tightly starting at the short end. Place them seam side down in an airtight container. Chill in a refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight.

  • Starting at the short end roll each bread tightly into a log.
  • Place all four veggie roll ups seam down into an airtight container and chill for at least 2 hours or overnight.

Once chilled, cut each rolled bread into 1/2 to 3/4 inch sections getting about 12 sections for each bread. *Please note if you used tortillas you will have to cut off the loose ends first.

Tips and Tricks to great Veggie Pizza Roll Ups

  • Pick a variety of textures and flavors for tasty veggie roll ups. While carrots and broccoli have mild flavors, bell peppers, red onion, and olives can add a nice zesty flair.
  • Make sure that all your vegetables are finely chopped to the same size. I used my food processor on pulse mode to easily control the size of my veggies. This makes for an easier time spreading out the mixture onto the flatbreads.
  • Using an angled icing spatula or knife works best when spreading out the veggie and cream cheese mixture. Seriously buy one of these icing spatulas if you don’t have one already. They are a game-changer in icing any dessert but also work amazingly well when it’s time to spread out anything horizontally to you!
  • Instead of using an airtight container to chill the veggie rolls, you can tightly wrap them in plastic wrap. Using plastic wrap is great when you don’t have a large rectangular container. I just prefer not to waste plastic wrap.

Veggie Roll Ups using Lavash Bread verus Flour Tortillas

While there’s nothing wrong with a great tortilla roll up, I might forever be partial to roll ups that use lavash bread. Lavash bread feels thinner to me and not as dense as your typical flour tortilla roll up. I also feel that flatbreads seem to keep better without getting gummy when moisture becomes an issue. And lastly, since you don’t have to trim the ends when using lavash bread, I am a BIG fan of less waste and more tasty appetizers! Lavash bread might be a tad more expensive but I think the payoff is worth it!
