Ingredients
Cheese Mixture
- 1 carton (8 ounces) whipped cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup (8 ounces) crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1 package (5 ounces) dried cranberries
Tortillas
- 4 flour tortillas (10 inches)
Instructions
- Prepare the cheese mixture: In a small bowl, combine the softened whipped cream cheese, crumbled feta cheese, and chopped green onions. Stir the ingredients thoroughly to achieve an even mixture. Next, fold in the dried cranberries until well distributed throughout the mixture.
- Assemble the pinwheels: Lay out each flour tortilla on a flat surface. Spread approximately 1/2 cup of the cheese and cranberry mixture evenly over each tortilla, covering it completely but leaving a slight edge for rolling.
- Roll and chill: Starting from one edge, roll each tortilla up tightly to form a wrap. Once rolled, wrap each pinwheel tightly with plastic wrap to maintain shape and freshness. Refrigerate the wraps for at least 1 hour to allow them to firm up.
- Slice and serve: After chilling, unwrap each roll and cut into 10 equal slices, creating bite-sized pinwheels perfect for serving as appetizers.
Notes
- Make sure the cream cheese is softened for easier mixing and spreading.
- Chilling the pinwheels helps them hold their shape when sliced.
- For a gluten-free option, substitute flour tortillas with gluten-free tortillas.
- These pinwheels can be prepared a day ahead and stored in the refrigerator.
