Ingredients

For the pinwheels

• 4 large flour tortillas
• 8 oz (225 g) creamy feta cheese, crumbled
• 1 cup dried cranberries, roughly chopped
• 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
• 1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon honey (optional)

For garnish

• Fresh parsley leaves
• Extra chopped cranberries

Instructions

• In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese and crumbled feta until well blended.

🥄 A hand mixer works wonders for achieving a creamy consistency! If you don’t have one, a whisk will suffice; just be prepared for a bit more effort.

• Fold in the chopped cranberries, parsley, garlic powder, black pepper, and honey if using. Ensure everything is thoroughly mixed.

• Lay out a tortilla on a clean surface and spread a generous layer of the cranberry-feta mixture across the entire tortilla, leaving about 1 inch around the edges.

• Starting from one edge, carefully roll the tortilla tightly into a log. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.

• Once all the tortillas are rolled, wrap them in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up and make slicing easier.

• When you're ready to serve, remove from the refrigerator, unwrap, and cut each log into bite-sized pinwheels.

✂️ A sharp knife works best to create clean cuts. If you encounter any squishing, wipe the knife between cuts to keep things neat!

Variations

• Gluten-free: Substitute the flour tortillas with gluten-free wraps. They work just as well!
• Vegetarian Delight: Replace feta with goat cheese or a vegan substitute for a twist on flavors!
• Spicy Kick: Add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes or chopped jalapeños for a fiery flavor!
• Herb Lovers: Try adding fresh basil or mint for a refreshing burst of flavor that pairs wonderfully with the cranberries.

Enjoy these vibrant and flavorful cranberry feta pinwheels at your next gathering, and watch how quickly they disappear! 🥳🌟
