Ham and Cheese Pinwheels

We spotted ham and cheese pinwheels in the party food section at our local Sam’s Warehouse. Then we decided to make homemade ones instead. Ours taste fresher, better, and are less expensive than store-bought. Plus you can make them ahead then slice and serve when ready.

ham and Cheese Tortilla Pinwheels

Pinwheels are one of the best appetizers. You make the roll-ups ahead of time then slice and serve cold. It’s so easy to do and they will disappear quickly!

Horseradish and roasted garlic give these pinwheels extra flavor. Spinach adds both color and healthy touch. No sense in having plain old boring pinwheels when you can make them extraordinary.

Sliced pickles, olives, and cherry tomatoes are great to serve with pinwheels.

Salsa or Pico de Gallo are fantastic pinwheel toppings. Have the sauce in a bowl next to the pinwheels for people to spoon over them.

Ingredients

• 10 Large Flour Tortilla Shells (10" - 12")

Instructions

• Whip cream cheese, add mayonnaise, mustard, horseradish, salt, garlic, and sugar. Spread cheese mixture on flour tortillas. About 3 tablespoons for each tortilla, depending on the size. Sprinkle 1/8 cup of spinach on cheese spread. Place ham near the edge and then the Swiss cheese on top of the ham. 
• Begin rolling tortilla. Wrap rolled tortillas in plastic and chill in the refrigerator for several hours until set.
