Description
Reuben Pinwheels are a portable and bite-sized twist on the classic Reuben sandwich, combining creamy dressing, tangy sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and corned beef wrapped in soft tortillas.
Ingredients
8 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature
1/2 cup Thousand Island dressing
1/2 cup packed sauerkraut, rinsed and well drained
2 cups shredded Swiss cheese
12 ounces thinly sliced deli corned beef (16 slices)
8 (9-inch) flour tortillas
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, Thousand Island dressing, and sauerkraut. Mix until smooth and well incorporated.
- Place a tortilla on a flat surface. Scoop 2 heaping tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture and spread it evenly over one side of the tortilla, almost to the edges.
- Sprinkle 1/4 cup of shredded Swiss cheese over the cream cheese mixture.
- Lay 2 slices of corned beef over the cheese. You can tear the slices if needed to fit the tortilla.
- Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and ingredients.
- Once all the tortillas are filled and rolled, chill the pinwheels in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to help them hold their shape.
- After chilling, slice each tortilla into 6-8 pinwheels, depending on your preferred size.
- Serve immediately or store in the fridge until ready to enjoy.
Notes
For a gluten-free version, swap regular flour tortillas for gluten-free tortillas.
Add spices such as cayenne pepper or paprika to the cream cheese mixture for an extra kick.
Make a veggie version by adding sliced pickles, onions, or bell peppers to the filling.
For a lighter option, use low-fat cream cheese and a reduced-fat dressing.
