Hey, hey, hey! Happy Labor day! 🙂
I thought that this recipe looked really good when I came across it on Facebook; however, after tasting that first pinwheel, I was a little disappointed. It was missing something. I sprinkled some garlic powder on top of the pinwheels since I had already cut them up, and that helped, but next time that I make these I will definitely add some seasoning or something to just give it that little pop that it needed. I think next time I will try adding dry ranch dip mix to the cream cheese and bottled ranch. Another option is to do the cream cheese, dry ranch, sour cream combo that was in the ham pinwheels recipe I posted. I really liked the mixture from those ham pinwheels, and I think that it would pair well with the bacon and cheddar in these. I think that anyone that doesn't like strong flavors would really like this recipe, but it was just a tad too bland for my taste. Anyway, try this recipe the original way first, and it it's too bland for you, spice it up a little bit!
Servings: Approximately 24, 1 inch pinwheels
Total Time: 15-20 minutes
Ingredients:
8 ounce package of cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup of bottled ranch dressing
1/2 cup of finely shredded cheddar cheese
6 pieces of bacon, cooked and chopped (I used turkey bacon)
1 tablespoon of minced green onions
6 small or 3 large flour tortillas
(Optional: I suggest adding dry ranch mix or other seasonings)
Directions:
1.) In a small mixing bowl, combine cream cheese and ranch dressing with hand mixer. Mix until smooth.
2.) Stir in cheddar cheese, bacon, green onions, and any seasonings.
3.) Spread layer of mixture over tortillas.
4.) Tightly roll tortillas. Slice into 1 inch pieces. Discard end pieces.
