Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 2 whole jalapeños (seeded and minced)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 8 slices deli-sliced ham
- 4 whole large flour tortillas
- 2 whole scallions (thinly sliced)
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, minced jalapeños, shredded cheddar cheese, scallions, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well blended and creamy.
Step 2
Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread about 1/4 of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the entire surface of the tortilla.
Step 3
Place two slices of deli-sliced ham on top of the cream cheese layer, overlapping slightly if needed.
Step 4
Roll the tortilla tightly, starting from one edge and rolling towards the opposite side to create a snug log shape.
Step 5
Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas, cream cheese mixture, and ham slices.
Step 6
Place the rolled tortillas seam-side down on a cutting board, and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to firm up for easier slicing.
Step 7
Using a sharp knife, slice each tortilla roll into 6 evenly sized pinwheels.
Step 8
Arrange the Jalapeño Ham Pinwheels on a serving platter and serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
