Ingredients

Scale

Filling

  • 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
  • 4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Wraps

  • 4 large flour tortillas

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, mix the chopped spinach, crumbled feta cheese, softened cream cheese, minced garlic, lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and pepper until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and the mixture is creamy.
  2. Spread filling on tortillas: Place one flour tortilla flat on a clean surface and evenly spread one-quarter of the spinach and cheese filling over the entire surface of the tortilla.
  3. Roll the tortillas: Tightly roll the tortilla from one end to the other, ensuring the filling stays evenly distributed within the roll.
  4. Chill the pinwheels: Wrap each rolled tortilla tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up, making them easier to slice.
  5. Slice and serve: Remove the plastic wrap, and using a sharp knife, slice each rolled tortilla into 1-inch wide pinwheels. Arrange on a platter and serve chilled or at room temperature.

Notes

  • For a gluten-free version, substitute the flour tortillas with gluten-free tortillas.
  • You can add chopped fresh herbs like dill or parsley for extra flavor.
  • Adjust lemon juice and garlic according to your taste preference.
  • The pinwheels can be made a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator wrapped tightly.
  • Serve with a dipping sauce such as tzatziki or hummus for added flavor.
