College football crowned their first champion with the new playoff system this week. We watched the game in Vegas. It was my Christmas gift to Chicken Legs. He was in heaven! He would go every month if we could afford it. This weekend, we are watching NFL Playoff games at home. I plan on serving these Chicken Salsa Rollups. I got a similar recipe from my Mom. I just added some chicken to her recipe. These were not spicy at all. The heat will totally depend on the salsa that you use in this recipe.

You can still stay on track with your healthy eating goals and eat these Chicken Salsa Rollups with a few little swaps.
I used 100% Whole Wheat Tortillas, Reduced-Fat Cheddar Cheese and Greek Cream Cheese in these Chicken Salsa Rollups. Chicken Legs couldn’t tell the difference. I thought they were great!

  1. These look so tasty! I will have to make these for my coworkers soon! As for a small Victory…it is early (8:40 am), so far I got out of bed early without whining and have cleaned my kitchen! Onward and upward!!

  2. Oh, and my little victory is taking 500 steps more than I did yesterday. Trying to up it by this amount every day.

  3. My victory was getting seconds of veggies instead of cheesy potatoes…but I can definitely get more of these! yum!

  4. I've made roll-ups like this with roast beef slices before. This recipe using chicken will be my next endeavor.

  5. I was just looking for something "mexicany", ha! My little victory this morning was eating a piece of homemade chocolate banana bread this morning that my 12 year old daughter baked by herself last night!!!! She's learning!!!

  6. My little victory this morning was reaching for a raspberry crumb cake. Holding it for a good couple minutes, then putting it back. Yeah!!! I am so making your roll-ups, so I have something small to grab when I get the urge for a snack.

  7. This recipe just printed for my "2015 Football tailgate food" file. Season can't get here soon enough! The boys will love these with guacamole and extra salsa for dipping.

  8. I used to use the Philadelphia Santa Fe cooking creme to make these but of course now I cannot find anyone who sells it.

    1. Thanks! I had read they cut back on who sold them. It makes me sad because I used them all the time and loved them.

  9. I love any kind of rollup/pinwheel, adding meat just gives me an excuse to consider them a meal! Sounds delicious, I'll be making them this weekend
