Cranberry Turkey Pinwheels
Cranberry Turkey Pinwheels have layers of cream cheese, spicy-sweet cranberry salsa, and thinly sliced turkey all rolled up in a spinach tortilla for a delicious party appetizer!
If you saw my post on Thursday, you might recognize the Cranberry Salsa in the background of this picture. Basically, I took that delicious salsa, and put it into these perfect little turkey pinwheels! The red salsa and green spinach wraps are so festive!
I love making pinwheel sandwiches like these for parties because they are a little more filling than chips and dip, so you can have a few and spend the rest of the night talking instead of snacking. 😉

They’re easy to make too! Smear some softened cream cheese on top of a spinach tortilla.
Spread some Cranberry Salsa on half of the cream cheese.
Layer some turkey lunch meat on top of the cranberry layer.
Roll it up as tight as you can, starting on the side with the meat and salsa. Then using a serrated knife, cut 2-inch pieces and poke a toothpick into the end of the tortilla to keep it from unraveling.
Keep them cold until ready to serve! Your guests are going to love these Cranberry Turkey Pinwheels!

Hi Lori! I recently switched recipe plugins and it must not have transferred correctly. Just fixed that. You can also find the cranberry salsa recipe here: https://www.dessertnowdinnerlater.com/cranberry-salsa/
Can these be frozen and thawed out later to eat?
Yes, these should freeze just fine. Just line a tray with parchment paper and lay the pinwheels so they aren’t touching each other. Freeze for one to two hours, or until they are frozen completely. Then transfer the pinwheels to a freezer-safe storage bag, squeezing as much air out as possible. They should last about 1-2 months this way.
Just made them for Saint Patrick’s Day Gathering and they look great,
Wonderful! Enjoy!
Gotta ask what brand tortilla is that? I can’t seem to find one similar so might have to amazon this.
I believe they were Don Julio, but I don’t see them on Amazon. Just grab whatever brand of spinach tortilla you can find at the store. You might be able to find Mission brand spinach tortillas.
These look wonderful, Amber. Thanks for the pictures that show how you put them together, too.
Thanks Teresa! Trying to make it easy on those who make them. 😉
