They are also wonderful for tailgating and make an awesome school lunch for your kids. What I like most about them, besides the awesome flavor, is they can be made a day or two in advance.

Ingredients Needed To Make Chicken, Bacon and Cheddar Pinwheels

  • Cooked Chicken- Rotisserie chicken is perfect. Leftover turkey can be used as well.
  • Cream Cheese
  • Bacon- cooked and crumbled
  • Shredded cheddar cheese- I like to use sharp cheddar cheese.
  • Ranch seasoning- I use Hidden Valley
  • Green onions
  • Large flour tortillas

Tips For Making

  • Cover the flour tortillas with a damp paper towel and microwave for 20 to 30 seconds. They will be much more pliable and less likely to tear.
  • Spread the filling evenly on the tortillas and almost to the edges.
  • Tightly roll the tortillas.

Storage

Wrap the pinwheel logs well in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hours before serving. You can make them a day in advance. Wait until shortly before serving to slice them. Wrap leftovers well so that they do not dry out.
