A friend gave me this recipe, and whenever I serve these tortilla pinwheel sandwiches, people ask me for the recipe, too!

DILLY CHEESE PINWHEELS
At 4:00 p.m. my friend and co-host announces that the guest list for our New Years party has jumped by 10 or 15 people. Not wanting to make another trip to the store, I begin a little pantry expedition to see if I could up with another appetizer to fill in. Found some crescent rolls but didn't want to do a Mexican or Southwestern flavored pinwheel so I came up with this instead.

Steps:
- For the base spread and tortillas: Mix together the cream cheese and pesto until well combined. Lay out the spinach, whole wheat and jalapeno-Cheddar tortillas and divide the cream cheese mixture among them. Using a spoon or offset spatula, spread the mixture all the way to the edges of each tortilla.
- For the veggie pinwheels: Evenly distribute the spinach over the top of the base spread on the spinach tortillas. Arrange the artichokes, green olives and sun-dried tomatoes over the spinach. Roll up the tortillas tightly and individually wrap in plastic. Set aside.
- For the meaty pinwheels: Shingle the cheese, pepperoni, salami and capicola onto the base spread on the whole wheat tortillas, slightly favoring one side. Roll up the tortillas tightly and individually wrap in plastic. Set aside.
- For the spicy pinwheels: Divide the pepper jack between the jalapeno-Cheddar tortillas topped with the base spread. Divide the arugula, sliced peppers and chopped cherry peppers between the tortillas. Roll up the tortillas tightly and individually wrap in plastic. Refrigerate the rolled tortillas for at least 2 hours and up to 12 hours.
- Unwrap and slice each tortilla into 1-inch segments/pinwheels. Arrange on a platter and serve.
Tips:
- Use a sharp knife: It will help you cut the dough and cheese evenly and will prevent tearing.
- Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make it tough. Mix it just until it comes together.
- Roll the dough out thinly: This will help the pinwheels cook evenly.
- Spread the filling evenly: This will help prevent the pinwheels from becoming too thick or thin in spots.
- Bake the pinwheels until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through.
- Serve the pinwheels warm or at room temperature: They are best when served fresh.
