Directions

Prepare the Filling:

In a large mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, ground cumin, salt, and pepper.
Stir until the mixture is smooth and well blended.

Add the Ingredients:

Fold in shredded chicken, cheddar cheese, red bell pepper, green onions, and corn kernels.
Stir until all ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the creamy mixture.

Assemble the Wraps:

Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon some filling onto the center and spread it evenly, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.

Roll and Chill:

Roll the tortilla up tightly, then wrap it in plastic wrap.
Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
Place the wrapped tortillas in the refrigerator and chill for 1–2 hours to allow the wraps to firm up.

Remove the plastic wrap from each tortilla roll. Slice into 1-inch pinwheels.
Arrange on a serving platter and serve chilled.
