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 and pepper, to taste
Assembly
- 4 large flour tortillas
Instructions
- Prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, thoroughly mix the chopped spinach, crumbled feta cheese, softened cream cheese, minced garlic, lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and pepper until well combined to create a smooth and flavorful spread.
- Spread the filling: Lay one flour tortilla flat on a clean surface, then evenly spread a quarter of the filling mixture over the entire tortilla to ensure each bite is flavorful.
- Roll the tortilla: Starting from one edge, tightly roll the tortilla into a log shape, ensuring the filling stays inside and creates distinct pinwheel layers when sliced.
- Chill the rolls: Wrap each rolled tortilla tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This step firms up the filling and makes the pinwheels easier to slice neatly.
- Slice and serve: After chilling, unwrap the rolls and cut each one into 1-inch wide pinwheels. Arrange them on a serving platter and enjoy immediately or keep refrigerated until serving.
Notes
- For a gluten-free version, substitute flour tortillas with gluten-free tortillas.
- Feel free to add herbs like dill or parsley for extra flavor.
- Pinwheels can be made a few hours ahead and kept refrigerated.
- Serving cold preserves the creamy texture and fresh taste.
