Ingredients

1 large tortilla
2 tablespoons cream cheese*
1 ½ teaspoons pesto
2 ounces deli turkey
Fruit
Veggies

Instructions

Make the pinwheels:

In a small bowl, combine room temperature cream cheese or whipped cream cheese with the pesto.
Spread the creamy pesto over the tortilla and place the sliced turkey on top. If you want to add lettuce or spinach place it on top of the creamy pesto spread under the turkey slices.
Fold the sides in and roll the tortilla tightly into a wrap before cutting it in half. Slice each half into ½ to 1-inch-thick pinwheel rounds.

For a packed lunch:

Place the pinwheel slices in a lunch container and pack it with fruit and veggies.
Refrigerate until ready to place inside a lunch bag, along with an ice pack if necessary.

Notes

*Whipped cream cheese has the perfect texture for this pesto spread. If using regular cream cheese, allow it to warm up to room temperature so it’s easier to combine with the pesto.
