Quick and delicious pinwheel wraps combining everything bagel seasoning, creamy cream cheese, and tender turkey slices, perfect for snacks or appetizers.

Ingredients

Scale
  • Large flour tortillas (10-inch size works best for rolling)
  • 8 ounces (225 g) cream cheese, softened (full-fat preferred, low-fat works too)
  • 1 tablespoon everything bagel seasoning
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • Pinch of freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice (optional)
  • 8 to 10 slices deli turkey breast, thinly sliced (nitrate-free if possible)
  • Fresh baby spinach or mixed greens
  • 2 tablespoons shredded sharp cheddar cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Soften the cream cheese by letting it sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese with everything bagel seasoning, garlic powder, black pepper, and lemon juice if using. Stir until creamy and well incorporated.
  3. Lay one large flour tortilla flat on a clean cutting board.
  4. Spread the seasoned cream cheese evenly over the entire tortilla surface using a butter knife or spreader.
  5. Arrange 8-10 slices of deli turkey evenly over the cream cheese layer.
  6. Add a handful of fresh baby spinach or mixed greens on top, and sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese if desired.
  7. Roll the tortilla tightly into a log shape, ensuring it is snug but not too tight to avoid squeezing out the filling.
  8. Wrap the rolled tortilla tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to set.
  9. Unwrap and slice the roll into 1-inch (2.5 cm) pinwheels using a sharp serrated knife.
  10. Arrange pinwheels on a platter or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Notes

Softening cream cheese before spreading prevents tearing the tortilla. Chilling the rolled wraps before slicing is essential for neat pinwheels. Use a sharp serrated knife and gentle sawing motion to avoid squashing the roll. For extra crunch, sprinkle additional everything bagel seasoning on the outside before chilling. Variations include vegetarian fillings, spicy cream cheese, gluten-free tortillas, and herb infusions.
