About Pinwheels

Pinwheels are a versatile and visually appealing snack or appetizer made by rolling a thin, flexible base—often a tortilla, flatbread, or puff pastry—around various fillings. Common ingredients include lean proteins like turkey or chicken, fresh vegetables such as spinach, bell peppers, or cucumbers, and flavorful spreads like cream cheese, hummus, or pesto. This dish is often associated with American party fare but can incorporate international flavors depending on the filling choices. Pinwheels are convenient and customizable, offering a balance of nutrients and textures. They can be made healthier by using whole-grain wraps, low-fat spreads, or increasing the vegetable content. However, some versions may be higher in sodium or calories due to processed meats, cheese, or buttery pastry. Despite this, pinwheels remain a colorful and satisfying option for mindful eating or indulgent occasions.
