# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • They come together in minutes with no cooking required, perfect for when you need something impressive but your energy is low.
  • The cream cheese and sun-dried tomatoes create this unexpected richness that makes you feel like you've done something fancy, even though you haven't.
  • High in protein and naturally gluten-free if you swap the wraps, so it works for almost any dietary moment.
02 -
  • The cream cheese must be softened first, or you'll spend five minutes trying to spread cold, lumpy cheese and end up frustrated—trust me on this one.
  • Don't overfill the tortilla even though you want to—it's the biggest mistake I see people make, and it results in filling squishing out the sides and pieces that fall apart.
03 -
  • Pat the sun-dried tomatoes dry with a paper towel before chopping—it prevents excess oil from making your spread too loose and keeps the consistency perfect for spreading.
  • If your tortillas are cold from the fridge, wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for fifteen seconds to make them pliable and easier to roll without cracking.
