Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 16 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 1/2 cups diced deli ham
- 1 1/2 cups diced dill pickle spears
- 6-7 taco-sized tortillas
Instructions
- Dice Ingredients. Dice the ham and dill pickle spears into small, evenly sized pieces and set them aside.
- Prepare Cream Cheese Mixture. In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in the diced ham and pickles until they are well combined into the cream cheese base.
- Assemble Pinwheels. Lay each tortilla flat and spread an even layer of the cream cheese mixture over the surface, leaving about a 1/2-inch margin around the edges. Roll each tortilla up tightly to form a log.
- Chill. Wrap each rolled tortilla log tightly in plastic wrap and place them in the refrigerator to chill for approximately one hour. This helps the pinwheels set and makes them easier to slice.
- Slice and Serve. After chilling, remove the wrapped tortillas from the refrigerator and unwrap. Using a sharp knife, slice each roll into 1-inch thick rounds. Arrange on a serving platter and enjoy immediately.
Notes
- To make slicing easier, ensure the tortillas are well chilled and the cream cheese mixture is firm before cutting.
- For added flavor, you can sprinkle some fresh herbs like dill or chives into the cream cheese mixture.
- This recipe can be made a few hours ahead of time; just keep wrapped and refrigerated until serving.
- Use gluten-free tortillas if a gluten-free version is needed.
