These Veggie Pinwheels are a big SNAP4CT staff favorite! They are so easy to make for a snack or to bring to a party. We suggest adding turkey for extra protein. This recipe calls for garlic and herb cream cheese, but you can make your own by mixing plain cream cheese with 2 tsp Ranch seasoning mix or another spice blend.
Makes: 16 servings
Ingredients
1 package (8 oz) low fat garlic herb cream cheese
6 whole wheat flour tortillas, 8 inches each
3 Roma tomatoes, diced
3 cups fresh greens, like spinach, arugula, romaine lettuce, etc.
