# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • You can prep these ahead & they're even better once chilled.
  • The flavors meld together in each bite, creating that addictive savory crunch everyone asks you about.
02 -
  • If you rush slicing while the rolls are still warm, the filling squishes out & ruins the shape.
  • Damp spinach will make the tortilla soggy so always pat the leaves dry thoroughly.
03 -
  • Invest in a good plastic wrap; it keeps the rolls snug and helps with slicing.
  • A touch of Dijon really makes the cheese mixture irresistible but don't overdo it.
