# What You'll Need:
→ Dairy & Spreads
01 -
4 tablespoons flavored or plain cream cheese, softened
→ Meat
02 -
6 slices deli turkey
→ Cheese
03 -
4 slices cheddar cheese
→ Produce
04 -
1/2 cup shredded lettuce or fresh spinach
05 -
1 tablespoon chopped green onions (optional)

06 -
2 large flour tortillas
→ Seasonings
07 -
1/4 teaspoon salt
08 -
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
In a small bowl, combine softened cream cheese, chopped green onions, salt, and black pepper until smooth and evenly mixed.
02 -
Lay one flour tortilla flat on a clean surface and evenly spread half of the cream cheese mixture over the entire surface to the edges.
03 -
Sprinkle half of the shredded lettuce over the cream cheese, then place 3 slices of turkey and 2 slices of cheddar cheese on the left side of the tortilla, leaving a small margin from the edge.
04 -
Starting from the filled side, roll the tortilla tightly but gently until fully rolled. Press the seam firmly to seal the roll-up, adding additional cream cheese if needed.
05 -
Repeat the process with the second tortilla and remaining ingredients. Use a sharp knife to cut each roll into 10 bite-sized pinwheels, removing any unfilled ends if desired.
06 -
Arrange the pinwheels on a serving platter and serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
