Tips:

  • Choose the right bread. For best results, use a soft, pliable bread that can be easily rolled up without tearing. Some good options include white bread, wheat bread, or even tortillas.
  • Spread the filling evenly. When spreading the filling on the bread, be sure to do it evenly so that each bite has a good balance of flavors.
  • Roll the bread up tightly. Once the filling is spread on the bread, roll it up tightly so that the filling is evenly distributed throughout the roll.
  • Chill the pinwheels before slicing. After rolling up the pinwheels, chill them in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before slicing. This will help them hold their shape and make them easier to slice.
  • Get creative with your fillings. There are endless possibilities for fillings that you can use for pinwheels. Some popular options include cream cheese, ham, turkey, chicken, vegetables, and cheese.

Conclusion:

Christmas party pinwheels are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any holiday party. They are also a great way to use up leftover turkey or ham. With a little creativity, you can make pinwheels that are sure to impress your guests. So next time you're looking for a festive and delicious appetizer, give Christmas party pinwheels a try.
