Sun-dried tomato Pesto Tortilla Rollups have layers of flavor and texture that only take 15 minutes to prepare.Â
I’m 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 doesn’t 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 that and then – Guess what – Nailed it!
Rollups with a mix of tasty ingredients. We pulled into 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.
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, which is 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’s hard to find vegan sun dried tomato pesto. I’ve made one that tastes really good and have put it on the blog. Click on this Sun Dried Tomato Pesto recipe and see how easy it is to make too.
Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto Tortilla Rollups is a mouthful to say and a truly delicious mouthful to enjoy.

Do you have a recipe for the pesto? The link you give for the jar of pesto has parmesan cheese in it. Thanks!

Love the combination of sun dried tomato with pesto! I’m the same way with camping. I’d rather be in charge of food than setting up/breaking down camp 🙂

I agree Maryanne! I could pack up and pull out if there was an emergency but – no thank you. Recipes first 🙂

Hi Amanda! Yes you can freeze the ingredients. You will need to stir again after defrosting so maybe freeze in smaller containers so that you will use up the whole amount after defrosting.

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.

These would be great for a party and baby weaning too. The flavours sound delicious. -

Love a sun dried tomato pesto! These roll ups look awesome -
This would make a great snack during the week. If I add some chicken or turkey, I bet it would make an awesome weekday lunch as well. -
I’ve just made this using the home made tomato pesto and subbing vegenaise for the cream cheese. It was delicious, and the pesto was ah-Ma-zing!-
Thanks Lucy! I smack these appetizers together all the time. I’ll have to try it with vegenaise next time. That pesto is one of my favorite things. 🙂

I used bruschetta instead of pesto, because I was in a rush when I found this recipe and didn’t realize there was a link for vegan pesto, and I couldn’t find any at the store. Fresh bruschetta is really good with it too!
