Description

These Italian pinwheels are a delightful blend of flavors with creamy cheese, savory meats, and fresh veggies. They’re simple to prepare and great for parties or quick meals!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 burrito size (10-inch) flour tortillas
  • 7 oz. genoa salami slices
  • 7 oz. prosciutto or thinly sliced deli ham
  • 12 slices provolone cheese
  • 8 romaine lettuce leaves
  • 8 oz block cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup jarred pepperoncini, diced
  • 1/3 cup sun dried tomatoes in oil rinsed and patted very dry, diced
  • 1/4 cup basil pesto
  • 1/2 tsp each dried basil, dried oregano
  • 1/4 tsp each garlic powder, pepper
  • 1/8 tsp salt


Instructions

  1. Prepare the lettuce leaves by removing the ribs, making them easy to roll. Pat the sun-dried tomatoes and pepperoncini dry, and remove excess oil from the pesto.
  2. In a bowl, combine the cream cheese, pepperoncini, sun-dried tomatoes, dried basil, oregano, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt until well mixed.
  3. Spread about 1/3 cup of the cream cheese mixture evenly onto each tortilla.
  4. Place three slices of provolone cheese down the center of each tortilla.
  5. Layer the prosciutto or ham over the cream cheese on each tortilla, followed by the salami slices, adjusting the salami as needed for fit.
  6. Add two lettuce leaves at the bottom edge of each tortilla for filling consistency.
  7. Carefully roll up each tortilla tightly around the fillings, ensuring no gaps are present.
  8. Wrap the rolled tortillas in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours, or freeze for 30 minutes if time is short.
  9. Once chilled, slice off the ends of the rolls, then cut into 3/4-inch pieces using a serrated knife.
  10. Remove the wraps and allow the pinwheels to sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

For best results, use the freshest ingredients for enhanced flavor.
These pinwheels are best enjoyed the same day as they may soften over time.
Feel free to customize the fillings with your favorite deli meats and cheeses.
