Step By Step Instructions
STEP ONE – In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, ranch dressing, and blue cheese crumbles until smooth and well combined.

STEP TWO – Add the buffalo sauce, green onions, and shredded chicken. Stir until everything is evenly combined.
STEP THREE – Spread one-third of the chicken mixture over the first tortilla, leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges.

STEP FOUR – Roll the tortilla up tightly and set aside. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
STEP FIVE – Refrigerate the rolled tortillas for 1 hour to firm up.
STEP SIX – When ready to serve, slice each roll into 1-inch pinwheels. Discard the ends of the tortillas that don’t contain any filling.
