These turkey cheese pinwheel wraps are quick, easy, and perfect for lunchboxes. Made with simple ingredients like turkey, cream cheese, and provolone, they come together in under 10 minutes and hold up beautifully without getting soggy.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch size)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • Pinch of salt and black pepper
  • 8–10 slices deli turkey breast
  • 8–10 slices provolone cheese
  • 1/4 cup shredded lettuce (optional)
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced bell peppers (optional)

Instructions

  1. Soften the cream cheese by letting it sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes, or microwave for 10-15 seconds.
  2. In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  3. Lay a large flour tortilla flat on a cutting board.
  4. Spread an even layer of the cream cheese mixture over the tortilla, leaving a 1/2-inch border.
  5. Layer the turkey slices evenly over the cream cheese, overlapping slightly.
  6. Layer the provolone slices over the turkey, overlapping slightly.
  7. If using, sprinkle lettuce and bell peppers in a thin line down the center.
  8. Starting from one edge, roll the tortilla tightly, tucking in the filling as you go.
  9. Wrap the rolled tortilla tightly in plastic wrap, twisting the ends like a candy wrapper.
  10. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  11. Unwrap and slice into 1-inch thick rounds using a serrated knife with a gentle sawing motion.
  12. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Notes

Chilling is crucial for clean slices. Use room-temperature tortillas to prevent cracking. For best results, make the rolls the night before and slice in the morning.
