Ingredients
Vegetables
- 1 cup chopped carrots
- 1 cup chopped bell peppers
- 1 cup chopped broccoli
- 3 green onions, sliced thin
Cheese Mixture
- 12 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 packet ranch seasoning
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Base
- 3 large burrito-size flour tortillas
Instructions
- Prepare Cream Cheese Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese with the packet of ranch seasoning until well blended and smooth.
- Incorporate Cheese: Add in the shredded cheddar cheese to the cream cheese mixture and stir until evenly mixed.
- Lay Out Tortillas: Spread out the three large flour tortillas flat on a clean surface.
- Spread Mixture: Evenly divide the cream cheese mixture among the three tortillas and spread into an even layer over each one.
- Add Vegetables: Sprinkle each tortilla with one-third of the chopped broccoli, carrots, bell peppers, and sliced green onions, distributing the vegetables evenly.
- Roll Up Tortillas: Starting from one edge, tightly roll up each tortilla into a pinwheel shape. Wrap each rolled tortilla tightly in plastic wrap.
- Chill: Place the wrapped pinwheels in the refrigerator and chill for at least one hour to firm up and allow flavors to meld.
- Slice: Remove the plastic wrap and use a serrated knife to slice each roll into 1-inch thick pinwheel pieces.
- Serve: Arrange the pinwheels on a serving platter and serve chilled for a fresh, crunchy snack.
Notes
- Use a serrated knife for clean cuts without squishing the pinwheels.
- You can substitute ranch seasoning with Italian seasoning for a different flavor twist.
- These pinwheels are best served within 24 hours of preparation.
- Feel free to add other vegetables like cucumbers or spinach for extra variety.
- For a gluten-free option, substitute the flour tortillas with gluten-free tortillas.
