The holidays are here and I am officially in full blown party mode. Within the last couple weekends I have gone to 2 parties and have a bunch more to look forward to this month. Super fun!

The last party I went to my friends asked all of us to bring an appetizer to share. Every time I am invited to a party it is always my intention to make some fancy elaborate appetizer to show of. But…yeah that never happens. It seems when I finally get around to making it I am short on time and patience. Honestly, after a long work week the last thing I want to do is attempt to make petite shrimp fritters with a lime cream dipping sauce. Ha! Don’t ask where I got that recipe cause I seriously just made it up in my head. But I also don’t want to just go to the store and buy chips and dip – although I am not above that either. My point is I want easy.

Anyway, I decided to whip up a batch of my mom’s “super simple but always a hit” taco roll ups. Not only is this appetizer a cinch to make you can make it a head of time and even freeze it if you want.

The ingredients are very simple and I bet most of you already have them in your pantry or fridge. They include tortillas, cream cheese, taco seasoning, taco sauce, black olives, and shredded cheese. I used Kraft® Shredded Cheddar Cheese this time around and thought it added a nice kick to the roll ups. Not to mention made the recipe that much easier because who has time to shred cheese during the holidays. Not me.

You can save up to $20 on participating Kraft products, only at Target, using these coupons. I don’t know about you but I am always trying to save a little extra especially during the holidays.

These roll up are perfect to have on hand during the holidays for the “pop ins” or impromptu parties.
