Loaded with cheeses, chicken and veggies all wrapped in a delicious flatbread or tortilla, this easy pinwheel recipe will quickly become one of your favorite make ahead meals! I am excited to have partnered with Flatout Flatbread to bring you this delicious recipe. Pinwheels are one of my favorite party foods. They are easy to make, they’re even better if they are made ahead of time and everyone always loves them! While pinwheels make a great appetizer, they’re also perfect as a light meal. I love a meal I can grab & go and one that transports well so I can take it outdoors and savor the sun as much as possible! Pinwheels are a favorite option to take out into the world for al fresco dining or to pack in your picnic basket!
Most often I make these with leftover rotisserie chicken but in the summer we are constantly grilling chicken, corn and veggies… all of them are great additions to this recipe! Using leftovers means less prep, less waste and loads of flavor. In fact, the grilled corn adds so much extra flavor in this recipe, we love to make sure we throw a couple extra cobs on the bbq just for this (but don’t worry, if you don’t have access to fresh corn on the cob, you can use canned or frozen corn as well)! To make this recipe healthier, I pack these roll ups full of lean protein and veggies and use light flatbread. In order to reduce the calories and fat in these, I use light cheeses and I mix in fat free Greek yogurt which is loaded with protein. You can use an envelope of taco seasoning but I most often have a batch of my own homemade taco seasoning so I can control the sodium. Adding a mixture of fresh red, yellow and green bell peppers not only adds flavor and crunch, it makes these extra pretty if you’re taking them to a gathering. If you like a little heat, feel free to toss in some minced jalapenos as well! While I favor this recipe for lunch, it makes a great picnic offering or an appetizer at a party. No matter when you serve these, you can guarantee they will practically disappear from the plate to rave reviews! I absolutely love quick and easy recipes like these easy roll ups, especially in the summer. Flatbreads or tortillas are the perfect canvas for grilled chicken or fish, fresh veggies and our favorites sauces for no fuss meals everyone loves. You can find flatbreads or tortillas in the deli/bakery section of most major grocery stores. Cranberry Feta Pinwheels © SpendWithPennies.com. Content and photographs are copyright protected.
