Instructions
Creating turkey pinwheels is a simple process with the following easy steps:
1. Prepare the Spreads: In a bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
2. Lay Out the Tortillas: Place one flour tortilla on a clean, flat surface.
3. Spread the Cream Cheese: Use a knife or a spatula to spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
4. Layer the Ingredients: On top of the cream cheese, layer slices of turkey, followed by spinach or lettuce. Then add shredded carrots and bell pepper slices for crunch.
5. Add Cheese (Optional): If using cheese, add it on top of the veggies for extra flavor.
6. Roll It Up: 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. Slice the Pinwheels: Once rolled, use a sharp knife to slice the pinwheel into 1-inch thick pieces. Arrange them cut-side-up on a serving platter.
8. Repeat: Follow steps 2-7 for the remaining tortillas and fillings.
9. Chill (Optional): For best results, cover the pinwheels with plastic wrap and refrigerate them for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
10. Serve: Enjoy your delicious turkey pinwheels immediately, or keep them in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
