Ingredients

  • 250 grams cream cheese, softened, (8 oz)
  • 1/4 cup mayo
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried dill weed
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • flour tortillas, i used three 8 inch
  • sliced ham
  • sliced cheese, i used cheddar

How To Make ham & cheese pinwheels

  • Step 1
    Mix together the first 5 ingredients until fairly smooth consistency.
  • Step 2
    Lay out a tortilla and spread a thin layer of cheese mixture to cover to the edges. Place ham slices, amount is up to you, to cover the width of the tortilla. (I used 4 slices of ham on each of 2 tortillas and 2 slices of ham on 1 tortilla, wanted to taste the difference, both very acceptable.)
  • Step 3
    Place a layer of cheese slices across the ham.
  • Step 4
    Roll up the tortilla away from you, then stick a toothpick in it.
  • Step 5
    Repeat with more tortillas to use up all the cheese mixture. I used three 8 inch tortillas, which was perfect. Cover with foil or plastic wrap and place in the fridge to chill for 1-2 hours.
  • Step 6
    When ready to serve, remove the toothpicks and using a very sharp knife, slice into ¾ to 1 inch slices. Serve as appetizers or as a light main dish. (I should have rolled these tighter.) I understand some people cut the ends off and discard them instead of serving them, for me, those are my initial taste tests.
