PRAIRIE SUSHI

Steps:

• Mix the cream cheese, basil, chives, parsley, lemon juice, and sprinkle with salt and pepper together in a bowl. Lay out the tortillas and spread with the herb cream cheese mixture. Next, layer on the turkey, carrots and cucumber onto each tortilla. Like making sushi, roll the tortillas up tightly, then wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate, about 1 hour. When ready to serve, unwrap the sushi rolls and slice into quarters.

TURKEY ROLL SUSHI

Steps:

• Mix spinach, cream cheese, Cheddar cheese, pickled peppers, spring onion, garlic powder, black pepper, and red pepper flakes together in a bowl. Spread cream cheese mixture, about 1-inch wide, over the top portion of each tortilla, reserving about 1 tablespoon cream cheese mixture for sealing.
• Arrange turkey onto each tortilla below the cream cheese mixture section. Spread a thin line of reserved cream cheese mixture below the turkey section of each tortilla for sealing. Starting at the end with the most cream cheese mixture, roll each tortilla around the filling, sealing together with the opposite end with small amount of cream cheese mixture. Cut 1/2-inch-wide slices from roll creating turkey 'sushi' rolls.
