How Do I Make The Best Easy Salami Jalapeño Pinwheels
1. Lay out each of the tortillas, spread 2 oz of the cream cheese on each tortilla for an even layer. Make sure it reaches to the edges of the tortilla.
2. Sprinkle the jalapeños on to the cream cheese, half on one tortilla, half on the other. Then take the 1/3 hard salami & put half on one tortilla, half on the other. With each slice press down so that it sticks to the cream cheese over the jalapeños. Then take 2-4 tbsp of the 1000 island dressing & spread it over the salami layer.
3. Then take the 1/3 roast beef & put half on one tortilla, half on the other. With each slice press down so that it sticks to the 1000. Then sprinkle with the shredded lettuce.
4. Then start with the edge closest to you to start rollup your pin wheel! Make sure that you rill it extremely tight to insure the layers. I like to squeeze the roll once in the middle of rolling it, to make sure it is holding well. Then cut into 1 inch rounds! There should be about 12-13 rounds a roll.
