NACHO CHEESE PINWHEELS
An easy appetizer that even the guys love. I like to use my own black bean dip, but purchased dip works fine. The jalapeno-flavored cheese dip can be used instead of regular nacho dip. You do want a thicker (but still spreadable) cheese dip...the sauces don't hold up for these roll-ups.

Tips:
- Use a variety of beans. This will give your pinwheels a more complex flavor and texture. Be sure to soak the beans overnight before using them.
- Don't overcook the beans. You want them to be soft, but not mushy.
- Use a good quality cheese. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your pinwheels. Look for a cheese that melts well and has a strong flavor.
- Be creative with your fillings. You can use a variety of different fillings in your pinwheels, such as vegetables, meats, or even fruits. Get creative and have fun!
- Be careful not to overfill the pinwheels. If you do, they will be difficult to roll up and will fall apart.
- Bake the pinwheels until they are golden brown. This will give them a crispy texture and help to hold them together.
- Serve the pinwheels warm or at room temperature. They can be served as an appetizer, main course, or snack.
