Prep Time 15 minutes
Course: Appetizer
Cuisine: American

Ingredients
  

  • 2 oz cream cheese at room temperature
  • 2 tbsp sun-dried tomatoes in oil drained and chopped
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 4-5 dashes Tabasco sauce
  • kosher salt
  • ground black pepper
  • 2 tortilla wraps 9 inch
  • 150-200 grams sliced turkey breast
  • 4-6 leafs of lettuce boston or butter lettuce
  • 6 slices cheese cheddar, provolone, or monterey jack, or havarti

Method
 

  1. Make the sun-dried tomato spread:
  2. Combine the cream cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, mayonnaise, Tabasco sauce, in a small bowl until well blended. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  3. Lay out the tortillas and start to assemble. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the entire surface of the tortillas.
  4. Cover each tortilla with 4-5 slices of sliced turkey, leaving a bit of space on one end because the ingredients will shift when you roll the tortilla. Lay cheese and lettuce along the center of the tortilla.
  5. Roll the tortilla up, tightly, towards the side that has the deli meat set back from the edge.
  6. Store in the fridge, seam side down, in a baking dish or wrapped in plastic wrap until ready to serve.
  7. Slice into 1 inch slices to yield 6-7 pinwheels per tortilla. Use a toothpick to secure if desired.

Notes

Notes
  • If you're serving these pinwheels for a party or gathering, you can arrange them on a platter and garnish with fresh herbs or lettuce for a colorful presentation.
  • If you would like a dipping sauce to pair with this recipe, double the sun-dried tomato spread recipe and serve half of the spread on the side as a dip.
Tips
  • When making pinwheel sandwiches, it's important to tightly roll them to ensure that they hold their shape when sliced.
  • You can customize this recipe by using different types of deli meat, cheese, and spreads. Try using roast beef, ham, or salami instead of turkey, and using different flavored cream cheese spreads.
  • If you're short on time, you can use store-bought sun-dried tomato pesto instead of making it from scratch.
