Turkey & Cheese Pinwheels
Description
This recipe prepares turkey and cheese pinwheels by spreading Swiss cheese wedges evenly over a soft tortilla or flatbread, then layering sliced turkey and a small handful of baby spinach. The tortilla is rolled tightly from the end with meat, carefully tucking in the greens, then sliced into five pieces to create pinwheels. The rolling technique keeps fillings neat and compact for easy eating.
The pinwheels combine the mild, creamy flavor of Swiss cheese with lean deli turkey and fresh spinach for a layered texture and flavor experience. The pairing with seasonal mixed berries adds sweetness and freshness, while mini pretzels contribute a crunchy contrast, rounding out the meal with varied elements.
This dish is convenient for packed lunches, light dinners, or casual gatherings. The recipe notes specify serving the pinwheels with the sides listed to complete the meal, offering nutrition details per serving. The recipe is flexible for substitutions in flatbread or greens according to preference.
Ingredients
- 1 tortilla I used Flatout Flatbread, regular size, or wrap of your choice
- 2 swiss cheese Laughing Cow spreadable light wedges
- 3 oz. turkey I used Boar’s Head, deli style
- baby spinach optional, small handful
- 1/2 cup mixed berries for serving
- 1/4 cup mini pretzels for serving, 23g
Instructions
- Lay your flatbread or tortilla on a clean, flat surface. First, we’ll spread the cheese wedges on the flatbread. Make sure to spread it on the ENTIRE flatbread surface.
- Next, add the turkey to 2/3 of the tortilla, leaving about 1/3 of the tortilla with just the cheese spread. Then, add a small handful of spinach on top of the turkey.
- Begin rolling the pinwheel from the meat covered side. Use both hands and roll TIGHTLY. The greens may try to escape. Just use your fingers to tuck them in as you roll.
- Cut the roll up into 5 pieces and place on a plate or add it to a container for meal prep. Serve with mixed berries and pretzels to complete the meal!
