Quick and kid-approved turkey ranch pinwheel sandwiches with a creamy ranch cream cheese spread, perfect for snacks, lunches, or casual get-togethers.

Ingredients

  • Large flour tortillas (10-inch size)
  • Cooked turkey breast slices (8 ounces / 225 grams)
  • Cream cheese (8 ounces / 225 grams, softened)
  • Ranch seasoning mix (1 tablespoon)
  • Shredded cheddar cheese (1/2 cup / 50 grams)
  • Fresh spinach leaves (1 cup / 30 grams, optional)
  • Green onions (2 stalks, finely chopped)
  • Optional extras: sliced black olives, diced red bell pepper, crispy bacon bits

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese with ranch seasoning. Stir until smooth, about 2-3 minutes. If cream cheese is cold, let sit 10 minutes before mixing.
  2. Place one 10-inch tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread 2-3 tablespoons of ranch cream cheese mixture evenly over the tortilla, leaving a small border around edges.
  3. Layer thin turkey slices (2-3 ounces / 60-90 grams) evenly over the cream cheese. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, and fresh spinach leaves if using.
  4. Roll the tortilla tightly into a log. For neater slices, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate 15-20 minutes before slicing.
  5. Using a sharp serrated knife, slice the rolled tortilla into 1-inch thick pinwheels (about 8-10 per tortilla). Serve immediately or chill until ready. Let sit 5-10 minutes if refrigerated before serving.

Notes

Soften cream cheese before mixing to avoid tearing tortillas. Roll firmly but not too tight to prevent filling from squeezing out. Chill rolled tortillas wrapped in plastic for 15-20 minutes before slicing for neater pinwheels. Toast pinwheels lightly in a skillet or under broiler for 1-2 minutes per side for a crispy texture.
