Tips & Substitutions
For added flavor, consider using flavored tortillas, such as spinach or sun-dried tomato. You can also substitute the creamy cole slaw with hummus for a lighter option. If you want a bit of heat, add sliced jalapeños or a sprinkle of chili flakes. This recipe is versatile, allowing you to mix and match vegetables based on what you have on hand.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the roll-ups with a side of Amy'S Dip for a delicious combination. They pair well with a fresh salad or some baked tortilla chips for crunch. You can also slice the roll-ups into pinwheels for a fun presentation at parties or gatherings. These vegetarian roll-ups make for a great lunch option or light dinner.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover roll-ups in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If you need to reheat them, unwrap and place in a microwave for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until warmed through. For best texture, consider serving them cold as a refreshing snack or appetizer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make these roll-ups ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the roll-ups a few hours in advance. Just wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and store them in the refrigerator until you're ready to serve. However, it's best to avoid adding the wet ingredients too early to prevent the tortillas from getting soggy.
What other vegetables can I include?
Feel free to customize the filling with your favorite vegetables! Bell peppers, spinach, or even shredded cabbage can work well. You can also add cooked beans or quinoa for extra protein, making these roll-ups even more filling and nutritious.
Can I use a different type of cheese?
Absolutely! If you're looking for a dairy-free option, consider using a plant-based cheese. Alternatively, feta or goat cheese can add a nice tangy flavor. Adjust the cheese according to your dietary preferences or taste.
