Steps:
- Mix cream cheese and garlic salt together until well blended. Spread evenly on tops of tortillas.
- In small bowl, stir together cranberries and onions. Sprinkle evenly over cream cheese spread. Lightly press cranberry/onion mix into cream cheese.
- Roll up tortilla. Trim off ends. And cut each tortilla into 10 even pieces using a serated knife, like you would slice bread.
Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh cranberries and chicken will give your pinwheels the best flavor.
- Don't overcook the chicken: Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough. Cook it just until it is cooked through.
- Shred the chicken finely: This will make it easier to spread on the tortillas.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the tortillas: This will help to prevent them from tearing.
- Be careful not to overfill the tortillas: If you put too much filling in, the pinwheels will be difficult to roll up.
- Bake the pinwheels until they are golden brown: This will give them a crispy exterior and a warm, melted interior.
Conclusion:
Chicken cranberry pinwheels are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or game day gatherings. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make these tasty treats that everyone will love.
