Ingredients

6 Zero Carb Street Taco Sized Tortillas
6 ounces Diced Ham
1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
5 ounces Cream Cheese (softened)
1/4 cup Green Onions (chopped)
2 tbsp Fresh Chives (chopped)

Directions

In a mixing bowl, combine the diced ham, shredded cheddar cheese, softened cream cheese, chopped green onions, and fresh chives. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Take one tortilla and spread a generous amount of the creamy filling down the center. Be careful not to overfill, as you’ll need to fold the tortilla closed.
Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top, ensuring the filling is secure inside.
Heat a small amount of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, place the roll-ups seam side down in the skillet.
Toast the roll-ups for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove from the skillet and let them cool slightly before serving.
