CHERRY VEGGIE ROLL UPS

The inspiration for Cherry Vege Roll-ups is the bountiful supply of fresh sweet cherries available from June through mid-August. These colorful salads-in-a-blanket are downright fun to make and they taste great, too. They're perfect as a fancy luncheon dish when garnished with edible flowers, but work equally well as a mid-morning or afternoon snack.
Kids will love to assemble Cherry Vege Roll-ups themselves. Set the ingredients out on the counter and give your budding cooks a quick demonstration. The cream cheese mixture binds the other ingredients together so little frustrations are kept to a minimum.

Makes 4 servings.

Ingredients
• 1 pkg. (3 oz.) cream cheese, softened
• 1 tablespoon finely chopped chives
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1/8 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
• 4 flour tortillas, (7-in. diameter)

• 1 medium cucumber, thinly sliced
• 1 cup alfalfa sprouts
• 4 lettuce leaves
• Edible flowers, optional


Directions
Combine cheese, chives, lemon juice and pepper, mix well.

Spread each of 4 tortillas with cheese mixture.

Top with cherries, cucumber, sprouts and lettuce; roll-up tortillas.

Garnish with flowers, if desired.
