BBQ Chicken Roll Ups are a quick and easy, make ahead appetizer for a crowd! Perfect for a Sunday night football game! They’re a great Super bowl food idea, but, these cheesy chicken, BBQ sauce and tortilla pinwheels are great for your lunch box or a regular party, too.
How to Make the Best BBQ Chicken Roll Ups:
However, you’ll need just a few simple ingredients: shredded chicken, cream cheese, shredded Cheddar cheese, BBQ sauce, tortillas and green and red onion. And you can easily adapt recipe to your own taste, or to ingredients you have on hand.
If you have some leftovers of cooked chicken, you can finish this recipe in less than 10 minutes. Also, these BBQ Chicken Roll Ups could be great snack for unexpected guests. And I don’t know about you, but I always end up with an excess of cooked or grilled chicken with whom I do not know what to do. That’s why I love this kind of recipes. It turns out food leftovers in another delicious meal.
Chicken Pinwheels Made With Leftover Chicken
And if you have the same problem, this BBQ Chicken Roll Ups recipe is great idea how to use up leftovers chicken. It tastes equally good with rotisserie chicken leftovers, as with freshly grilled or cooked chicken.
Moreover, I’ve already shared a few of these recipes: Chicken Avocado Salad Roll Ups, Chicken Avocado Burritos, Cheesy Chicken Crescent Dinner Rolls, Chicken Avocado Stuffed Garlic Bread…
And I could now mention indefinitely all of my recipes that use the leftovers of cooked chicken, but I stick just to the appetizers. Since Super bowl is coming, all football fans are looking for quick and easy, but delicious snack for that occasion.
However, if you need more Super bowl food ideas take a peek at my APPETIZERS category. Maybe you’ll be inspired to try something of my older recipes. But all of them are quick and easy, crowd pleaser food, I promise!
