"A tasty appetizer for those holiday parties that is very attractive and easy to make. For an interesting and healthy variation try using turkey bacon, light mayo and spinach as substitutes. I like this recipe because there are a lot of variations that can be made with this very basic idea. I hope you like these as much as my family, they disappeared in 5 minutes flat! Cook time is refridgeration time."

I made these with tomato tortillas and they looked beautiful on my tray. I knew I had to make these while the tomatoes still have good flavor. My guests all loved them. Thank you for sharing with us.

These were amazing! They didn't get mushy or soggy at all. I followed the directions exactly and they turned out so well. Can't wait to make them again.

These were great! I added much more bacon than the recipe calls for. I also added 1/2 t onion powder and a 1/2 t garlic powder to the cream cheese mixture(which, I too, doubled). To the lettuce I chopped up a couple of scalions that I had left over and didn't want to go bad. Great flavors!

I made this for an office party and it was a hit! It was perfect as I could make it up the night before, transport to my office, stick it in the fridge and then slice right before serving. I used my own dehydrated tomatoes and spinach tortillas. Thanks Blink :)

Did the wraps become mushy/soggy? I'd like to pack them for my girls lunch, so they'd sit for a while (with an ice pack in their lunch bag).
