Prepare Tortillas: Lay out the flour tortillas on a clean surface. Spread the creamy mixture evenly over the surface of each tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
-
Add Fillings: Sprinkle the chopped celery, sliced black olives, and thinly sliced ham over the creamy mixture, distributing them evenly across the tortillas.
-
Roll and Wrap: Carefully roll up each tortilla tightly, starting from one edge and rolling towards the other. Wrap the rolled tortillas in plastic wrap to help them hold their shape.
-
Chill: Place the wrapped rolls in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours, or until firm. Chilling allows the flavors to meld together and makes the pin wheels easier to slice.
-
Slice and Serve: Once chilled, remove the plastic wrap and cut off the ends of each roll to create clean edges. Then, using a sharp knife, slice the rolls into 1-inch thick pin wheels.
-
Ready to Enjoy: Arrange the sliced pin wheels on a serving platter and get ready to impress your guests! These flavorful bites are ready to be devoured.
-
Optional Twist: For an extra burst of flavor, try adding little baby dill pickles in the middle before rolling up the tortillas. It’s a tasty variation that adds a delightful crunch!
