Ingredients

Scale

4 large flour or whole wheat tortillas
1 lb turkey slices, thinly sliced
8 oz cream cheese, softened
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup onion, finely diced
1 cup bell peppers, small diced
2 cups spinach, coarsely chopped
1 tsp dried herbs (oregano or basil)


Instructions

In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese, minced garlic, finely diced onion, and dried herbs until smooth.
Fold in the diced bell peppers and chopped spinach until evenly distributed.
Lay each tortilla flat on a clean surface.
Spread the cream cheese vegetable mixture in a thin, even layer across the entire tortilla, leaving a small margin at the edges.
Layer the turkey slices over the spread.
Roll each tortilla tightly into a log shape.
Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes to firm up.
Once chilled, slice each log into 1-inch thick pinwheels and serve.

Notes

Ensure cream cheese is fully softened for easy spreading.
To prevent soggy wraps, ensure vegetables are dry after washing.
These can be made the night before and kept in the refrigerator.
Try swapping the bell peppers for shredded carrots or cucumbers for a crunch variation.
