Time 15m

Yield 4-6 pinwheels

Number Of Ingredients 7

mayonnaise (or whipped cream cheese)
1 large tortilla (square, if available)
1 -3 leaf lettuce (or baby spinach)
1 -3 slice deli meat (of your choice-I used roast beef)
2 -3 slices cheese (of your choice-I used provolone)
gherkin
chives (or scallion tips)

Steps:

  • Trim around edges of round tortilla(if you can't find square ones) to make it square.
  • Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise(or whipped cream cheese) on top. If you like, you could spread a thin layer of mustard on too.
  • Layor on the lettuce(or spinach), then the meat and cheese. Roll up tightly.
  • With the seam on the bottom, slice the tortilla into 2" wide pinwheels.
  • For the heads, cut a small pickle in half at an angle. Poke 2 small holed in the uncut end and stick pieces of chive with knots at one end in each hole for antennae.( I used scallionn tops, cut a sliver and inserted them).
  • Slip each pickle half under the edge of the pinwheel, securing them together with a toothpick if necessary.
  • Makes 4-6 pinwheel sandwiches.

I'm not a huge fan of mushrooms, but I really enjoyed these faux escargots. The sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the mushrooms were tender and not at all rubbery.

The sauce was a little too salty for my taste, but overall these faux escargots were pretty good.

These were easy to make and turned out great! I served them with a side of crusty bread and a glass of white wine.

I was skeptical at first, but these faux escargots are surprisingly good. They're a great way to enjoy the flavors of escargot without the expense or the hassle.

I've been making this recipe for years, and it never disappoints. The mushrooms have a great texture, and the sauce is flavorful without being too heavy.
