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.

Steps:
- Combine the Cheddar, pimientos, cream cheese, mayonnaise, cayenne, scallions and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Use a potato masher to mash the ingredients together to make a cohesive spread.
- Lay the tortillas out on a work surface and evenly spread one-third of the cheese mixture on each, leaving a 1-inch border along the edge. Top each with 1 1/2 cups of the arugula. Roll the tortillas tightly, tucking the arugula in as you go. Lay the wraps on a platter seam-side down and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour.
- Transfer the wraps to a cutting board. Trim off the edges, then use a serrated knife to carefully cut them into 1-inch rounds. Arrange the pinwheels on a platter and serve immediately or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 4 hours.
Tips:
- Use a variety of fillings: Get creative with your fillings to make pinwheels that are both delicious and visually appealing. Try using different combinations of meats, cheeses, vegetables, and sauces.
- Keep the dough thin: The thinner the dough, the crispier the pinwheels will be. If the dough is too thick, it will be difficult to roll and the pinwheels will be more bread-like than crispy.
- Don't overfill the pinwheels: If you overfill the pinwheels, they will be difficult to roll and the filling will ooze out. Aim for a thin, even layer of filling.
- Crimp the edges of the pinwheels: Crimping the edges of the pinwheels will help to seal them and prevent the filling from leaking out. You can use a fork or your fingers to crimp the edges.
- Bake the pinwheels until they are golden brown: The pinwheels should be baked until they are golden brown and crispy. This will ensure that the dough is cooked through and the filling is hot and melted.
- Serve the pinwheels warm: Pinwheels are best served warm, when the filling is melted and gooey. You can serve them with a dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing or marinara sauce.
Conclusion:
Pronto pinwheels are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator or freezer. With a variety of fillings to choose from, there is a pronto pinwheel recipe for everyone. So next time you are looking for something to make, give pronto pinwheels a try.
