Equipment

  • mixing bowl
  • Cling wrap
  • knife

Ingredients
  

  • 16 oz cream cheese blocks 2 blocks
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons dried shallots
  • 8 oz sweet mini peppers about 1 cup chopped
  • 1.5 teaspoons fresh dill
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chives
  • kosher salt and black pepper to taste
  • 6 large flour tortillas around 12 inches!

Instructions
 

  • Combine the cream cheese, garlic powder, dried shallots, chopped mini peppers, dill, and chives in a bowl and mix till fully combined. Taste and adjust any seasonings, keeping in mind the flavors will increase as it chills. Spread the mixture thin on a large tortilla.
  • Roll the tortilla tightly, starting at one end and rolling to the other till it forms a log. Place the tortilla in cling wrap and roll it up to seal. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.
  • Use a very sharp knife to cut the tortillas into ¾-1 inch slices. Wipe the knife between slices for the best cut. Serve cold or at room temperature. Flavors will increase the longer you refrigerate the pinwheels.

Notes

Any tortilla can be used for these. Feel free to substitute gluten free or wheat. Tortilla roll ups will keep best up to 2-3 days and be good up to 5 days, but may begin to get soggy depending on what vegetables you use. Dried dill and chives can be used, but add a very small amount (like ½ teaspoon) or the flavor may be overpowering. Cream cheese can be subbed for Garlic and Herb Boursin cheese (don't add extra spices) or hummus for a dairy free alternative.
