Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 16 thin (or regular) deli-sliced turkey slices
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 8–10 ounces hummus
- 1 garden cucumber (or 1.5 Persian cucumbers), peeled and diced
- 2–3 ounces sun-dried tomatoes (in oil or dried), diced
Optional
- Plastic wrap or foil (for wrapping rolls)
- Small serrated knife (for slicing rolls)
Instructions
- Spread hummus: Lay out each tortilla flat on a clean surface and evenly spread the hummus over the entire surface, dividing the hummus equally amongst all tortillas to ensure each has a good coverage.
- Add turkey slices: Place 4 slices of turkey on each hummus-coated tortilla, arranging them evenly to the edges so every bite contains turkey.
- Add vegetables: Evenly distribute the diced cucumber and diced sun-dried tomatoes over the turkey on each tortilla to add fresh, crunchy, and tangy flavor.
- Roll tightly: Carefully roll each tortilla into a tight log, making sure the fillings stay neatly inside. Wrap each roll tightly with plastic wrap or foil to help maintain its shape.
- Chill rolls: Refrigerate the wrapped pinwheel rolls for about one hour to let the flavors meld together and to firm up the rolls for easier slicing.
- Slice and serve: Remove the plastic wrap and use a small serrated knife to cut each log into 6 equal pinwheel slices. Optionally, insert toothpicks to keep the pinwheels secure and to help with serving.
Notes
- For smaller servings, use smaller tortillas and reduce ingredient quantities accordingly.
- Substitute flour tortillas with gluten-free or whole wheat tortillas as desired.
- If sun-dried tomatoes are dry, rehydrate in warm water for 10 minutes before dicing for better texture.
- Plastic wrap helps keep the pinwheel rolls firm and easier to slice cleanly.
- These pinwheels are best served chilled but can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
