Ingredients
  

  • 4 oz. cream cheese softened for spread
  • 2 tablespoon sharp cheddar cheese finely shredded for flavor
  • cup pimento-stuffed olives finely chopped for briny contrast
  • 1 tablespoon olive brine for added moisture and tang
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder for seasoning
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper for seasoning
  • 4 extra-large flour tortillas burrito style for wrapping
  • 1 9 oz. package sliced turkey lean for filling
  • 1 cup spinach fresh for crunch and color

Method
 

  1. Stir the softened cream cheese, finely shredded sharp cheddar cheese, finely chopped pimento-stuffed olives, olive brine, garlic powder, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
  2. Lay out the flour tortillas flat on a clean surface. Spread 2-3 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture over each tortilla, covering the entire surface evenly.
  3. Arrange 3-4 slices of turkey along the center of the tortilla, ensuring minimal overlap to create an even layer. Leave about ¼ inch of the tortilla edges exposed to help seal the roll. Add a single layer of spinach leaves over the turkey.
  4. Starting from the edge closest to you, roll the tortilla tightly, tucking in the fillings as you go to ensure a secure roll.
  5. With the seam side facing down, slice the roll into 1-inch wide pinwheels using a sharp knife.
  6. Arrange the pinwheels on a platter, cut side up, or place them into an airtight container for meal prep. If desired, insert a decorative toothpick into each pinwheel to help hold them together.
