Helpful Tips

Customize Your Fillings: One of the best things about Southwestern Pinwheels is their versatility! Feel free to customize the fillings to suit your taste. Add diced cooked chicken for extra protein or mix in some jalapeños for added heat.
Chill Before Slicing: After assembling your pinwheels, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before slicing. Chilling helps the flavors meld together and makes it easier to cut clean, uniform pieces.
Garnish for Presentation: For an extra touch of flair, consider garnishing your pinwheels with fresh herbs, like cilantro or parsley, before serving.
