These roll-ups are simply divine. A friend shared the recipe after serving them at a church brunch, where they disappeared fast. They make a unique finger food, a side dish at supper or a lovely lunch served with soup.

This is a really nice go-to appetizer or brunch recipe for Easter. I make them every year. Wonderful!

Wonderful! I did substitute 'chive and onion' cream cheese for the regular cream cheese. Again, wonderful.
