Italian Sub Pinwheels

Prep Time 15 minutes
Total Time 1 hour 15 minutes
Makes 16 pinwheels

Ingredients

  • 2 burrito-size flour tortillas 10 inch
  • 4 oz cream cheese softened
  • 2 tablespoons Italian dressing
  • 1/4 cup shredded iceberg lettuce patted very dry
  • 6 slices thin deli salami
  • 6 slices thin deli ham
  • 6 slices provolone cheese
  • 1/4 cup banana peppers drained and patted dry
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano

Instructions

  • Beat the softened cream cheese with the Italian dressing and oregano until smooth and pourable.
  • Spread the mixture over one tortilla, leaving a 1/2 inch border bare at the edges.
  • Layer half the salami, ham, and provolone evenly over the cream cheese, keeping it within an inch of center so it doesn't squeeze out.
  • Scatter half the banana peppers and dried lettuce over the meat and cheese.
  • Roll the tortilla tightly from the near edge, tucking the filling in as you go.
  • Wrap in plastic wrap and repeat with the second tortilla and remaining ingredients.
  • Chill the wrapped logs for at least 1 hour so the layers set and slice cleanly.
  • Unwrap, trim the ends, and cut each log into 8 rounds with a serrated knife.
  • Secure each round with a toothpick if it wants to unroll, then arrange cut-side up on a platter.

Good to Know

Swap in whatever deli meats are already open in the fridge; the cream cheese and dressing base carries any combination the same way.
