Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, minced sun-dried tomatoes, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and Italian salad dressing. Mix until thoroughly blended. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Lay the two tortillas flat on a clean surface. Evenly spread half of the cream cheese mixture over each tortilla, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges to prevent the filling from squeezing out when rolled. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Evenly scatter the shredded romaine lettuce over the cream cheese spread on both tortillas. Top with the chopped banana peppers, ensuring they are distributed evenly. (3 minutes)

04

Step

On each tortilla, layer the salami, ham, capicola (if using), and provolone cheese slices. Arrange the roasted red peppers on top of the cheese. (5 minutes)

05

Step

Tightly roll up each tortilla, ensuring the filling is compact and secure. Wrap each roll tightly in plastic wrap. (5 minutes)

06

Step

Refrigerate the wrapped pinwheels for at least 1 hour, or up to 2 hours, to allow them to firm up. This makes them easier to slice. (60 minutes)

07

Step

Using a sharp, serrated knife, carefully slice each roll into 1-inch thick pinwheels. Arrange on a platter and serve chilled. (10 minutes)

For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the cream cheese mixture.
Feel free to substitute other Italian deli meats and cheeses to your preference.
To prevent soggy pinwheels, ensure all vegetables are patted dry before adding them to the tortilla.
If you are making these ahead of time, wait to slice them until just before serving to maintain freshness.

    Great recipe! I omitted the capicola and they were still delicious. Will definitely make these again.

  • Llewellyn Hackett

    I made these for lunch and they were so easy and satisfying. I added a little pesto to the cream cheese for extra flavor.
