  • Preparation Time: 15 minutes
  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Servings: 32 slices
  • Yield: 32 slices

Ingredients:

  • 2 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened πŸ§€
  • 1 bunch green onions, chopped πŸ§…
  • 2 large flour tortillas 🌯
  • 4 stalks celery, finely chopped πŸ₯¬
  • 1/2 cup black olives, sliced πŸ«’
  • 1/2 pound ham, thinly sliced πŸ–

Instructions:

  1. Mix Creamy Base: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and chopped green onions. Stir until well blended and smooth.

  2. 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.

  3. Add Fillings: Sprinkle the chopped celery, sliced black olives, and thinly sliced ham over the creamy mixture, distributing them evenly across the tortillas.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

  8. 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!
