Ingredients:
- 4 whole wheat tortillas
- 4 oz of cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 cup thinly sliced cucumber
- 8 slices of turkey breast
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions:
- Prepare the Tortillas: Lay out the whole wheat tortillas on a clean surface.
- Spread the Cream Cheese: Evenly spread a thin layer of softened cream cheese on each tortilla. This will help the other ingredients stick and add a creamy texture.
- Add the Veggies: Sprinkle the shredded lettuce, shredded carrots, and thinly sliced cucumber evenly over the cream cheese layer on each tortilla.
- Layer the Turkey: Place two slices of turkey breast on top of the veggies on each tortilla.
- Add the Cheese: Sprinkle a small amount of shredded cheddar cheese on top of the turkey slices.
- Roll Up the Tortillas: Carefully roll up each tortilla tightly to form a log shape. Make sure to roll them as tightly as possible to keep all the ingredients together.
- Slice into Pinwheels: Using a sharp knife, cut each rolled tortilla into 1-inch slices to form pinwheels. You should get about 5-6 pinwheels per tortilla.
- Serve: Arrange the pinwheels on a plate and serve immediately, or pack them in a lunchbox for a tasty, kid-friendly lunch.
These turkey and veggie pinwheels are not only colorful and fun to eat but also packed with protein and veggies, making them a healthy and delicious option for kids.
