Savoury snack recipe: party pinwheels

Party pinwheels three ways

Actually, each of these pinwheels has a secret ingredient. Pickles add lively flavour to the ham wrap; olives add surprise to the turkey wrap; and barbecue sauce blended with cream cheese gives full flavour to the beef wrap. You can make these ahead and freeze them. Just thaw for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Preparation time: 20 minutes

Cooking time: 0 minutes

Makes 50

  • 6 packages (225 g/8 oz each) cream cheese, softened, divided
  • 2 jars (150 g/5 3/4 oz each) stuffed olives, drained and finely chopped
  • 12 flour tortillas (25 cm/10 in) divided
  • 1 package (175 g/6 oz) thinly sliced cooked turkey
  • 200-250 g (1 c) finely chopped dill pickles
  • 30 ml (2 tbsp) Dijon mustard
  • 1 package (175 g/6 oz) thinly sliced fully cooked ham
  • 175 g (3/4 c) finely chopped celery
  • 110-125 ml (1/2 c) hickory-flavoured barbecue sauce
  • 1 package (175 g/6 oz) thinly sliced cooked roast beef1. In a medium bowl or food processor, beat two packages of cream cheese until smooth. Add the olives and mix well.
    2. Spread about 175 grams (3/4 cup) each on four tortillas; top with four slices of turkey. Roll up tightly; wrap in plastic.
    3. Beat two packages of cream cheese with the pickles and mustard. Spread about 175 grams (3/4 cup) each on four tortillas; top with four slices of ham. Roll up tightly; wrap in plastic.
    4. Beat the remaining two packages of cream cheese with the celery and barbecue sauce. Spread about 175 grams (3/4 cup) each on the remaining four tortillas; top with four slices of beef. Roll up tightly; wrap in plastic.
    5. Refrigerate the wraps at least two hours. Slice into one centimetre (1/2 inch) pieces and serve.

One more notch!

  • For more flavour and a colourful presentation, use a different flavoured tortilla wrap for each type of pinwheel.
  • Try spinach tortillas with the turkey wrap, regular wheat tortillas with the ham wrap, and sun-dried tomato tortillas with the roast beef wrap.
