Ingredients

  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries, chopped
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 4 large flour tortillas (or any tortilla of your choice)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and crumbled feta cheese. Mix until smooth and well-combined.
  2. Add Cranberries and Green Onions: Stir in the chopped dried cranberries and green onions until evenly distributed.
  3. Spread on Tortillas: Lay out a flour tortilla on a flat surface. Spread a generous amount of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the entire surface of the tortilla.
  4. Roll the Tortilla: Carefully roll up the tortilla tightly, ensuring the filling stays inside.
  5. Slice into Pinwheels: Once rolled, use a sharp knife to slice the roll into 1-inch pinwheels.
  6. Serve: Arrange the pinwheels on a platter and serve immediately, or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving for a chilled snack.

Notes

  • Storage: Store the pinwheels in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. Best enjoyed chilled.
  • Freezing: These pinwheels freeze well! After slicing, arrange the pinwheels in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze until solid. Transfer to an airtight container or zip-top bag, and they can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 months. To serve, allow them to thaw in the fridge or at room temperature.
  • Tortilla Options: For variety, use spinach, sun-dried tomato, or whole wheat tortillas for a different flavor or to add a pop of color.
  • Vegan Version: Substitute with vegan cream cheese and a dairy-free feta for a vegan-friendly option.
  • Add-ins: Enhance flavor with chopped pecans, walnuts, or fresh herbs like parsley or thyme.
