Steps:
- For the base spread and tortillas: Mix together the cream cheese and pesto until well combined.

- For the meaty pinwheels: Shingle the cheese, pepperoni, salami and capicola onto the base spread on the whole wheat tortillas, slightly favoring one side. Roll up the tortillas tightly and individually wrap in plastic. Set aside.

Divide the arugula, sliced peppers and chopped cherry peppers between the tortillas. Roll up the tortillas tightly and individually wrap in plastic. Refrigerate the rolled tortillas for at least 2 hours and up to 12 hours.

I got this recipe on a card at the tortilla factory at California Adventure at Disneyland. I've made it with salami or ham, but ham seems to be the favorite with my family. (prep time does not include chilling time).

Tips:
- Choose the right tortillas: Use fresh, pliable tortillas that are not too thick or too thin. Corn tortillas are a good option because they are more flexible than flour tortillas.
- Spread the filling evenly: Do not overload the tortillas with filling, or they will be difficult to roll up. Spread the filling evenly over the tortillas, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Roll the tortillas tightly: Roll the tortillas up tightly, starting from one of the short sides. Make sure to tuck in the sides of the tortillas as you roll them up.
- Chill the pinwheels before slicing: Chilling the pinwheels for at least 30 minutes before slicing will help them hold their shape. You can also freeze the pinwheels for up to 2 months.
- Serve with your favorite dipping sauce: Tortilla pinwheels are delicious served with a variety of dipping sauces, such as salsa, guacamole, or sour cream.
Conclusion:
Tortilla pinwheels are a quick and easy appetizer or snack that can be made with a variety of fillings. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or lunch boxes. With a little creativity, you can create endless flavor combinations that everyone will enjoy. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy recipe, give tortilla pinwheels a try!
