Wondering if anyone has made any low calories pinwheels or roll ups out of tortillas.

    Tortilla factory tortillas
    roast beef
    cream cheese
    cheddar cheese
    diced jalapeno for kick

    One of my favorite combos.

    Turkey Breast

    1 large packet of turkey breast slices
    12 fat-free flour tortillas
    6 ounces fat-free cream cheese
    ¼ cup finely chopped watercress
    ¼ cup sun dried tomatoes, finely chopped
    ¼ teaspoon white pepper

    Mix all the ingredients except turkey, watercress and tortillas, preferably in a food processor. Lay out your tortillas and spread the mixture lightly on each so that it covers the entire surface. Place the turkey slices over the spread. Leave one edge free of the turkey so that the cream cheese spread shows. It will act as glue when you roll the tortilla. Place watercress along the edge lined with turkey slices. Pick up this edge and begin to roll tightly. Glue together once you get to the edge without turkey slices. Wrap the pinwheels tightly in a plastic wrap and keep in refrigerator. Slice into ½- or 1-inch slices just before you serve.

    Tuna Pinwheels

    1 can of tuna
    ½ cup low fat mayonnaise
    10 slices sandwich bread without crust
    ¼ cup dill pickles
    ½ cup chopped celery

    Place all the ingredients in a bowl except the bread. Mix together so that ingredients are well distributed. Lay out slices of bread. Spread the mixture evenly but not too thick. Roll up each slice of bread. Secure the roll with a toothpick. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.


    I don't know the exact calories, but they are low calorie. And delicious!

    Josephs has a line of low-carb lavash bread that is perfect for rolling up for sandwiches and pinwheels.

    I make a gingered tuna spread using freshly grilled tuna (garlic, olive oil, soy sauce, pepper, fresh ginger, cream cheese), finely shredded lettuce, diced tomato, finely diced red onion, smear the tuna spread on, roll it up and slice off individual wheels for finger foods...

    Perfect for any occasion! I also do a Salmon spread using the same flavors as above but instead of soy sauce, Ill use homemade teriyaki.
