Gumbo Ya Ya: Spinach Roll-Ups

Welcome to my site!

I'm Cindy, and I love to cook! And, I love to eat... hence the size of my rear end! I come from a long line of cooks. My great great Grandmother was a cook in the original Harvey Houses. My grandmother Julia was an awesome cook, and my mom was incredible. I owe my skills to these great women. Especially my Mom who said this to me about making gravy... "Cindy Lynn, wallpaper paste is wallpaper paste & gravy is gravy. Never the two shall meet!" Shall we say my first experience at making gravy left a little bit to be desired! Thank the high heavens my cooking skills have improved since then! Enjoy!

Spinach Roll-Ups

Here is an easy to make and delicious to eat appetizer. It's great for larger gatherings.

Ingredients:

12 - 16 large flour tortillas
3 - 10oz pkgs. frozen cooked chopped spinach (defrosted and all of the liquid squeezed out)
8 oz. sour cream
8 oz. mayonnaise
1 pkg. Hidden Valley Ranch Party Dip
3 green onions, finely chopped

Directions:

Mix sour cream, mayonnaise and dip mix in a large bowl.

Add defrosted and drained spinach. Get as much of the liquid out of the spinach as possible before adding to the sour cream mixture. Stir thoroughly.

Add green onions; mix well.

Thinly spread the spinach mixture onto a tortilla. Roll the tortilla up, cut the ends, and put on a plate. Continue doing this until there is no more of the spinach mixture.

Cover the plate and place the rolled up tortillas into the fridge for about 1 hour. Remove from the fridge and slice into individual pieces.

Arrange on a plate and take to your favorite potluck!
