Cream cheese rollups

I had another appointement about a job, and this one today would also be a good one, though not so good payed as probably the yesterday one, but lets see if I get one of them.
                   -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I still had some tortilla, and I wanted to use them before they get bad - which probably will take a while, but I was in the mood to something with them. A simple mexican dish was too easy and so I tryed to make an appetizer or when done bigger even a Lunch or sandwich recipe.
