APPETIZER PINWHEELS

Pinwheel Roll Ups are one of my favorite appetizers to make and serve. They are super easy to prepare, have so many flavor variations and are always a crowd favorite.

These pinwheels highlight the tangy briny olives combined with cream cheese. They make the perfect pair all rolled up into a tortilla bite.
