1/4 cup pitted Kalamata olives
1/4 cup oil-packed sundried tomatoes
1 tablespoon capers
4 whole canned artichokes
1/2 cup mayonnaise

Reserve. Combine the mayonnaise and pesto in a small bowl. Place the tortillas on a flat work surface. Spread about 2 tablespoons of the pesto mayonnaise on each tortilla. Layer 2 slices of mortadella, 3 slices of Provolone, 4 slices of salami, and 3 slices of prosciutto over the mayonnaise spread, covering most of the surface of the tortilla. Spread about 1/3 cup of the chopped vegetables over the surface of the meat. Roll the filled tortillas and secure with 5-6 sandwich picks along the seam of each, about 1" apart. Slice about 1/2" off of each end of the tortilla and discard. Repeat the process with remaining tortillas. Slice each tortilla between each sandwich pick, creating pinwheels. Serve.
