# What You'll Need:

→ Tortillas

01 - 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch)

→ Spreads & Cheese

02 - 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
03 - 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
04 - 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

# How To Make:

01 - In a medium mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, shredded cheddar cheese, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until the blend is smooth and uniform.
02 - Place one tortilla flat on a clean cutting board. Spread approximately one quarter of the cheese mixture evenly across the surface, ensuring coverage to the edges.
03 - Arrange about 1.75 ounces of sliced turkey evenly over the cheese layer.
04 - Scatter roughly 0.5 ounces of fresh spinach leaves over the turkey.
05 - Starting at one edge, roll the tortilla tightly into a log, keeping the fillings compact.
06 - Repeat steps for the remaining tortillas and fillings.
07 - Wrap each rolled tortilla securely in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set the filling.
08 - Unwrap chilled rolls, trim the ends if necessary, and slice each log into 6 equal pinwheels using a chef’s knife.
09 - Arrange pinwheels on a serving platter. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • They come together so quickly, you’ll barely have time to miss a step.
  • Each bite tastes like a little party—equal parts creamy, savory, and crisp.
02 -
  • Don’t skip chilling before slicing or your rolls will squish and lose their shape.
  • Drying spinach completely makes all the difference—wet leaves ruin the texture.
03 -
  • Refrigerate rolled tortillas longer for perfectly crisp pinwheels and easy slicing.
  • A little extra pinch of pepper right before rolling adds subtle heat—try it!
