Tips:

  • Choose the Right Tortillas: Use fresh, pliable tortillas that are not too thick or thin. Corn or flour tortillas can be used, depending on your preference.
  • Prepare the Filling Evenly: Spread the filling evenly over the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges. This will help prevent the filling from spilling out when you roll the tortilla.
  • Roll the Tortillas Tightly: Roll the tortillas tightly, starting from one of the long sides. Make sure the filling is evenly distributed throughout the tortilla.
  • Chill Before Slicing: After rolling the tortillas, wrap them in plastic wrap and chill them for at least 30 minutes. This will help the pinwheels hold their shape when sliced.
  • Slice with a Sharp Knife: Use a sharp knife to slice the tortilla pinwheels. This will help prevent them from tearing or crumbling.
  • Serve with Dipping Sauce: Serve the tortilla pinwheels with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing, guacamole, or salsa.
