Years ago my former MIL, who was an ornery Polish woman made these, and
I have been making them to rave reviews since. There's no tortillas
involved, so you may not care to boher, but...we called them:

POLISH ROSES
Jar/jars of Armor Sliced Dried Beef
Bunches of Scallions/Green Onions
Cream Cheese
Assembly:
Clean and trim skinny scallions to include some of the dark green so
that they are about two inches longer than the width of the beef slices.
Spread cream cheese very near to all the edges of beef slices, roll/wrap
one scallion into each cheesed-beef slice. Keep refrigerated until
serving.
Notes: Very cold cheese tends to tear the beef slices as you try to
spread, so let the cheese sit out long enough to shed the refer-cold.
Leftovers may be kept refrigerated for a day or two, but I find need to
very tightly wrap the entire bunch of them in foil so as to not allow
the scallions to curl as they did the one time I only refer-stored them
in a covered dish.

Chop some green chiles (the New Mexico type, but could use jalapenos
etc) and onion into the cream cheese.


Cream cheese, finely-chopped green onion/scallion and some salt.

Cream cheese and finely-chopped smoked salmon (or other smoked fish).

Cream cheese and finely-chopped ham, turkey etc.


You don't need to limit it to cream cheese either. Tuna salad or egg
salad will work fine too, as long as the texture is fine enough to stay
put in the tortillas.

Spread the tortillas with bean dip or chile con queso and warm them up
when you get there.

Spread flour tortillas with softened cream cheese with
chopped chiles and chives or black or green olives. Slice
into rounds and serve with salsa for dipping.

Spread large flour tortillas with cream cheese. Sprinkle with taco seasoning
(the packaged kind is fine or make your own).
Sprinkle chopped green onion (green tips only), and chopped black olives
over that.

OR

On top of cream cheese put a layer of chopped black olives and thinly sliced
ham.

To make it easier to slice rounds; roll up
tortillas real tight and wrap in saran/plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnite,
then slice.

Hope this helps!

Do you make jam? If so, perhaps make an apricot-jalapeno jam and
spread it on tortillas with the cream cheese. Or even mix good quality
storebought apricot preserves with some canned chiles. It would be
unique and pretty easy.

Mix some cranberry jelly into the cream cheese. Spread on tortillas, top
with thin sliced smoked turkey and whatever else (lettuce, tomato, etc) you
like. Slice into rounds and serve.

Am I the only person who doesn't like these tortilla-wrap appetizers? To me,
they seem to be dry and just blah. Even dipped in salsa. I'd rather have
Doritos with a Velveeta dip.

Why waste good cream cheese?

Stuffed Mushrooms

3/4 - 1 pound mushrooms, stems removed and chopped
1/4 pound butter
I small onion diced
bread brumbs
8 oz. cream cheese

This isn't a correct recipe, but just guidelines.

Saute the onions in the butter and add the mushroom stems until they give up
their moisture. Remove from heat and add the cream cheese and mix well. Add
bread crumbs as needed to make a good consistency. Salt and pepper to taste.
Put into mushroom caps and bake in a 350 oven for about 20 minutes.

This is simple yet good. I prefer them to any crab-stuffed mushrooms I've ever
had.
