Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to make these delicious pinwheels:

• 4 Tacome Whole Wheat Tortillas

• 1 cup cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie chicken works great!)

• 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (plain, for a tangy kick)

• 1/4 cup cream cheese (softened)

• 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or your favorite blend)

• 1/2 cup diced tomatoes (seeds removed for less moisture)

• 1/4 cup sliced black olives

• 2 tablespoons red salsa (mild or spicy, depending on your preference)

• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro (chopped)

• Salt and pepper to taste

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare the Filling
   In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken, Greek yogurt, cream cheese, shredded cheese, diced tomatoes, black olives, red salsa, and cilantro. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

2. Assemble the Pinwheels
   Lay out one Tacomex Whole Wheat Tortilla on a flat surface. Spread an even layer of the chicken mixture over the entire tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges to prevent spillage.

3. Roll It Up
   Starting at one end, tightly roll the tortilla into a log. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.

4. Chill and Slice
   Wrap each rolled tortilla in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This helps the pinwheels hold their shape when sliced. Once chilled, use a sharp knife to cut each log into 1-inch slices.

5. Serve and Enjoy
   Arrange the pinwheels on a platter and serve immediately. For an extra touch, garnish with additional cilantro or a side of salsa for dipping.
