Servings: 24
Ingredients
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 (8 ounce) cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup creamy Caesar dressing
- 1 cup cooked, chopped chicken
- 2 cups Romaine lettuce, chopped
- 2 green onions, sliced
- ½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Place the softened cream cheese and Caesar dressing in a large bowl. Mix together with a spatula or hand mixer.
- Stir in the green onion, shredded cheese, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
- Mix in the chopped chicken and lettuce. Stir to fully combine.
- Spread 1/4 of the mixture on top of one tortilla in an even layer. Make sure to spread out to the edges.
- Tightly roll up the tortilla. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate.
- Continue with the remaining tortillas and mixture.
- Chill the pinwheel rolls for at least an hour. Remove the plastic wrap. Slice into 1/2 inch rounds and serve.
Notes
- Soften the cream cheese before preparing. This will help make it easier to combine the ingredients and also makes it easier to spread.
- Shred or dice the chicken small. Make sure to shred or dice the chicken into small pieces so that it's easy to roll.
- Chop the lettuce small. Similar to the chicken, you will want to chop the Romaine lettuce small.
- Roll the tortillas tightly. Rolling the tortillas tightly will help hold them together and makes sure there isn't any open space in the pinwheel.
