Ingredients

  • Large-sized flour tortillas
  • Softened cream cheese (plain or flavored)
  • Thinly sliced deli meat (turkey, ham, roast beef, or chicken)
  • Shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or pepper jack)
  • Thinly sliced cucumbers
  • Shredded carrots
  • Bell peppers
  • Baby spinach
  • Mustard (optional)
  • Mayonnaise (optional)
  • Ranch dressing (optional)
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Italian seasoning

Instructions

  1. Prepare your ingredients: soften cream cheese, wash and slice vegetables, and lay out tortillas and deli meat.
  2. Spread a thin, even layer of cream cheese over each tortilla. Mix in seasonings or condiments with the cream cheese for added flavor.
  3. Layer deli meat evenly over the cream cheese, keeping the layers thin.
  4. Add shredded cheese over the meat, followed by your choice of vegetables in a single layer.
  5. Season lightly with salt, pepper, and any herbs or spices.
  6. Carefully roll each tortilla tightly, starting at one end and rolling towards the other.
  7. Wrap each rolled tortilla in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  8. Remove the plastic wrap and slice the rolls into 1-inch pinwheels using a sharp knife.
  9. Arrange the pinwheels on a platter and serve immediately, or keep them in the fridge until ready to serve.

Notes

Chill the rolled tortillas before slicing for clean cuts. Avoid overfilling the tortillas to prevent them from falling apart. Experiment with flavors and fillings to suit your taste.
