Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto Tortilla Rollups has layers of flavor and texture that only takes 15 minutes to prepare. Healthy appetizer that everyone loves.
So, we are on our road trip and are driving along looking at the scenery. Hopefully, we will be in Maine all week. I am trying to spy moose but, of course, as the miles roll by I am also trying to think of something easy to prepare to eat that won’t heat up the camper. Food does not get far from my mind. I do most of the planning for meals and Ed does most of the hooking and unhooking of the trailer and I like it that way. It makes it all so much easier. Especially when you’re in a 16′ trailer.
My mind also tends to stray towards appetizers. So many times they are also perfect for lunches or side dishes. So I thought of this and than and then – Guess what – Nailed it! Rollups with a mix of tasty ingredients. We pulled in to a grocery store so I had time to get them tested for the blog too. They turned out great and I even got some pictures taken. Since they are easy to pack these would be perfect on a casual holiday or piled high on a plate while you watch any sports game.
You can add finely diced red onion but I kept the recipe so that very picky eaters would like them too. Also you can pile on the fresh spinach a couple of layers thick if you are looking for heftier appetizers. These are perfect for one big bite or two normal bites and the flavor combination is all there. Homemade vegan cream cheese is amazing but you could cut that step and buy a pre-made one.
Also, sometimes it is hard to find vegan sun dried tomato pesto. I find it on amazon – once in a while and stock up. The blog Oh My Veggies has a really nice homemade Sun Dried Tomato Pesto recipe that is simple to make.
Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto Tortilla Rollups is a mouthful to say and a truly delicious mouthful to enjoy.

The link for the pesto goes to “Mezzetta Sun Ripened Dried Tomato, Pesto” but that brand is not vegan. It has Parmesan in it.

Thanks, Monica! I missed that. I’ll have to link it to something else.
