Note

For best results, ensure the tortillas are warm and flexible before rolling to avoid tearing.

If making ahead, wrap the rolls tightly in plastic wrap or foil. They can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, though the tortillas may soften.

Add black beans, corn, or avocado slices to the filling for extra protein and creaminess.

Use gluten-free tortillas if needed to make this recipe gluten-free.
