Dill Pickle Tortilla Roll Ups Recipe

If you love bold flavors, Dill Pick Tortilla Roll Ups are a must-make appetizer. Soft tortillas are filled with a cream cheese and dill pickle infused mixture that delivers big flavor in every bite.

Dill Pickle Tortilla Roll Ups are a great recipe when you want an easy appetizer. These pickle roll-ups, sometimes called pickle wraps, bring together creamy filling, savory deli meat, and crunchy pickles in one bite. They are perfect for game day, holidays, or anytime pickle lovers are around!  

I’ve shared in other posts that we love tailgating at my husband and daughter’s alma mater, something my husband and I have enjoyed for more than 30 years. This recipe comes from a dear friend we tailgate with at every home game. Her Dill Pickle Tortilla Roll Ups are legendary, and if they are not on the table, we have to question if it is really game day. That is how loved they are. We finally asked her for the recipe, and my oldest daughter was the first to start making them for gatherings with her friends, then for family get-togethers. Now I make them whenever she does not, because I love them and truly believe they should always be on our table!

Tips for Making Dill Pickle Tortilla Roll Ups

• Use room temperature cream cheese so it spreads easily and creates a thick layer without tearing the tortillas

• Use a hand mixer or wooden spoon to cream the mixture

• I have only used refrigerated Claussen Spears in this recipe

• I prefer to use Carl Buddig Beef, found in the refrigerated section with the deli meat, however dried beef found in the canned meat aisle works as well

• For a little extra flavor, add in green onions or diced bell pepper. 

• We double the recipe for large parties or game day tailgates!

How to Make Dill Pickle Tortilla Roll Ups

Step 1: Finely chop the dill pickle spears and set aside. Chop the dried beef into small pieces and set aside.

Chopped beef and dill pickles.

Step 2: In a large bowl, combine 8 ounces softened cream cheese, 2 tablespoons sour cream, 3 tablespoons mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon dill pickle juice, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and mix well to combine. A hand mixer helps create a smooth and spreadable texture, but a sturdy wooden spoon works too. Fold in 1 cup chopped pickles and 1 cup chopped dried beef and mix until well combined.

Step 3: Spread a thick layer of the cream cheese mixture evenly over each tortilla, going almost to the edge leaving a little room so the mixture does not spread out. Carefully roll the tortillas up tightly around the filling to create neat rolled tortillas. Tightly wrap each tortilla roll in plastic wrap or aluminum foil with the seam side down. Place in the refrigerator to chill for 3-4 hours or overnight.

Step 4: After chilling, remove the plastic wrap/aluminum foil and use a sharp knife to cut into inch 1-inch slices. Wipe the blade of the knife with a paper towel between cuts for the cleanest edges. Place on a plate or platter. For best results, serve the Dill Pickle Tortilla Roll Ups at room temperature or slightly chilled depending on your preference. 

How to Store Dill Pickle Tortilla Roll Ups

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. 

This recipe is also delicious as a dip. Make it as outlined above, but simply place the mixture in a bowl and serve it with crackers for easy snacking. We love it both ways and it never lasts long either way.

Dill Pickle Tortilla Roll Ups is the kind of easy appetizer that fits any gathering. They are familiar yet exciting, simple yet packed with flavor. Whether you call them pickle roll ups or pickle wraps, they deliver every time. Make them once, and next time you host, you will already know they belong on the menu. They are Forkin' Good!
