Smile Sweet Tortilla Snack

We had old fashioned weiners wrapped in lc tortillas for lunch, and I "needed" something else, saw a tortilla there in the package, looking at me, saying "Eat me!" So here is what I did with it:

I spread it with soft butter, added a tsp or so of powdered erythritol and a sprinkle of cinnamon, topped it with about a tbs of walnuts, rolled it up and nuked it for about 20 seconds. Let it cool enough to eat, and chowed down. It was mighty tasty, too.

Next time I'm going to use softened cream cheese instead of butter, and maybe a bit of lemon juice or lemon zest, sticking with the powdered erythritol and walnuts.

Sounds good Nita. Have you ever tried putting crunchy peanut butter on a tortilla and rolling it up? Great heated as well.

We like Dessert Quesadillas....yum-O!

Spread 1 LC tortilla with sweetened cream cheese(probably about 4T) mixed with your favorite berries; I use strawberries the most, but Raspberry and Blueberry are just pretty darn tasty!
Top with another tortilla, wrap with plastic wrap and pop in the freezer for about 8-10 minutes. When ready to serve, *fry* the quesadilla on both sides in a touch of butter and oil mix. Plate it up, cut into wedges and drizzle with warm berry coulis.(which I just buzz up in my magic bullet with liquid splenda)
Yum-O!

I've done the pnb and cream cheese thing, roll it up tight and cut into pinwheels.
The folks at work ate 'em up!

I was working from home Thursday in anticipation of an ice storm that would make driving difficult when I got an office e-mail reminding me that Friday was going to be a holiday "food day" for the office. As I was not going out to the store, I had to come up with something from the ingredients I had at home. I took softened cream cheese and beat it, then added some Davinci s/f caramel syrup and liquid splenda and beat it all together, spread it on l/c tortillas and topped it with pecan meal and rolled it up. The pinwheels were a great hit.
