Cover with another paper towel and microwave on high until crispy and lightly browned. Alternatively, pan-fry until crisp. Reserve 3 tablespoons of the rendered bacon fat; let bacon cool, then crumble finely.

Recipe View 35 mins Chill and Slice (30 minutes chilling + 5 minutes slicing): Wrap each rolled tortilla tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the filling to firm up. This will make slicing easier. Using a sharp, serrated knife, trim the rounded ends of each roll-up and discard (or enjoy as a chef's treat!). Slice the roll-ups into approximately 1/2-inch thick rounds. Arrange on a platter and serve chilled.

For enhanced flavor, consider using a sun-dried tomato pesto. A sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese adds a salty touch.
To prevent soggy roll-ups, ensure the diced tomato is well-drained. You can also use paper towels to gently blot the tomatoes before adding them to the cream cheese mixture.
These roll-ups can be prepared a day in advance. Store them tightly wrapped in the refrigerator until ready to slice and serve.
Experiment with different fillings! Consider adding chopped roasted red peppers, black olives, or pepper jack cheese for a spicy kick.
