Veggie Pinwheels

These Veggie Pinwheels are a big SNAP4CT staff favorite! They are so easy to make for a snack or to bring to a party. We suggest adding turkey for extra protein.  This recipe calls for garlic and herb cream cheese, but you can make your own by mixing plain cream cheese with 2 tsp Ranch seasoning mix or another spice blend. ​​

Makes: 16 servings

Ingredients
1 package 
(8 oz) low fat garlic herb cream cheese
6 whole wheat flour tortillas, 8 inches each
3 Roma tomatoes, diced 
3 cups fresh greens, like spinach, arugula, romaine lettuce, etc.


Optional: 6 slices of Turkey. 

Instructions
  1. Place tortillas on microwaveable plate or paper towel; microwave uncovered on HIGH 10 - 15 seconds to soften.
  2. Spread about 2 Tbs cream cheese over each tortilla. Top with a slice of turkey, chopped tomatoes and spinach.
  3. Roll up lightly.
  4. Optional: Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate 2-3 hours to blend flavors.
  5. Cut each roll into eight 1-inch slices. Arrange with cut side down on serving plate.
