Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings (about 24 pinwheels)

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 ounces shredded yellow Cheddar
8 ounces chopped pimientos, very well drained
2 ounces cream cheese
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
2 scallions, finely chopped
Kosher salt
3 burrito-size flour tortillas (10 inches in diameter)
4 1/2 cups loosely packed arugula

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.

These pinwheels were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think next time I will use a milder variety of pimiento cheese.

These pinwheels were easy to make and they turned out great! I used a store-bought pimiento cheese spread and they still tasted delicious.

I'm not a fan of pimiento cheese, but I thought I would give these pinwheels a try. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked them. The cream cheese and cheddar cheese help to balance out the pimiento cheese flavor.

I loved the idea of these pinwheels, but I found the cream cheese to be a bit too overpowering. I think I would prefer them with less cream cheese and more cheddar cheese.

These pinwheels were easy to make, but they didn't turn out as I expected. The pimiento cheese was too runny and the pinwheels fell apart when I tried to slice them.

I've made these pinwheels several times now and they are always a crowd-pleaser. They are perfect for potlucks or parties. I love that they can be made ahead of time, too.
