Ingredients

• 4 pieces Flour tortillas (large, 10-inch)
• 8 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
• 2 tablespoons Beet puree
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup Chopped fresh spinach
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, beet puree, salt, ground black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until the mixture is smooth and evenly pink in color.

Step 2

Lay a tortilla flat on a clean work surface.

Step 3

Spread approximately 2-3 tablespoons of the pink cream cheese mixture evenly over the tortilla using a spatula.

Step 4

Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of shredded cheddar cheese and a handful of fresh chopped spinach evenly over the cream cheese layer.

Step 5

Roll the tortilla tightly into a log shape, starting from one edge and rolling toward the other.

Step 6

Repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and filling ingredients.

Step 7

Once all the tortillas are rolled, use a sharp serrated knife to slice each roll into 1-inch thick pinwheels.

Step 8

Arrange the pinwheels flat side up on a serving platter.

Step 9

Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 4 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
