๐Ÿฆƒ Turkey Pinwheels Quick and Delicious Recipe for Any Occasion provides a tasty and convenient appetizer thatโ€™s easy to prepare and perfect for gatherings.
๐ŸŒฏ These pinwheels combine creamy, savory flavors with fresh spinach for a satisfying bite that everyone will enjoy.

  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 8 pinwheels

Ingredients

– 4 ounces cream cheese, softened

– 2 tablespoons sharp cheddar cheese, finely shredded

– 1/3 cup pimento-stuffed olives, finely chopped

– 1 tablespoon olive brine

– 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

– 4 extra-large or burrito-style flour tortillas

– 1 nine-ounce package sliced turkey

– 1 cup spinach

Instructions

1-First, stir together the cream cheese, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, finely chopped pimento-stuffed olives, olive brine, garlic powder, and black pepper until everything is well combined. This creates a creamy base that holds the pinwheels together.

2-Next, lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface and spread 2 to 3 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture evenly over one side of each tortilla, making sure to cover edge to edge for the best seal.

3-Then, arrange 3 to 4 slices of turkey in an even layer along the center of the tortilla, leaving about 1/4 inch of the cream cheese spread exposed at the edges to help with rolling.

4-Add a single layer of spinach leaves on top of the turkey for a fresh, nutritious touch.

5-Fold the edge of the tortilla closest to you over the fillings and roll tightly, tucking in the fillings as you go to keep everything secure.

6-Place the rolled tortilla seam side down and slice into 1-inch wide pieces using a sharp knife.

7-Finally, turn each piece on its face to show off the spiral pattern, then transfer to a serving platter or airtight container. If youโ€™re taking them to a gathering, secure each pinwheel with a toothpick for extra hold.

Notes

๐Ÿง€ The cream cheese spread can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to a week; soften at room temperature before spreading.
๐ŸŒฏ Use burrito-size flour tortillas for easier rolling and better spirals. Avoid corn tortillas as they tear easily.
๐Ÿฆƒ Thinly sliced deli turkey works best for rolling and maintaining shape.
