Description

These **Turkey Pinwheels** are a quick and easy appetizer or snack, featuring a savory cream cheese spread, lean turkey, fresh veggies, and optional cheese, all rolled up in a soft flour tortilla. Perfect for any occasion, they are customizable, healthy, and packed with flavor!


Ingredients

4 large flour tortillas

8 ounces cream cheese, softened

12 ounces sliced turkey breast

1 cup fresh spinach or lettuce

1 cup shredded carrots

1 cup bell pepper, sliced thin

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: 1 cup cheese (cheddar or mozzarella), sliced for added flavor


Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  2. Place one flour tortilla on a clean, flat surface.
  3. Spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
  4. Layer slices of turkey, followed by spinach or lettuce. Then add shredded carrots and bell pepper slices for extra crunch.
  5. If using cheese, add it on top of the veggies.
  6. Start at one edge of the tortilla and slowly roll it away from you, keeping the filling tightly packed. Roll until you reach the edge, ensuring everything is enclosed.
  7. Use a sharp knife to slice the roll into 1-inch thick pieces. Arrange them cut-side-up on a serving platter.
  8. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and fillings.
  9. For best results, cover the pinwheels with plastic wrap and refrigerate them for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Notes

Use whole wheat, gluten-free tortillas, or lettuce wraps for a lighter version.

Experiment with adding extras like cucumbers, avocado, or olives for added flavor.

For a spicy twist, add hot sauce or jalapeño slices.
