How to Make Cheesy Mexican Pinwheels
Ingredients you’ll need for this recipe
Step by Step Guide
1. In a medium bowl, blend the cream cheese, sour cream, salsa, and fajita seasoning. This creates a creamy, flavorful base that will really bring the party to your tortillas.

2. Divide the creamy mixture evenly across all 4 tortillas. Use a silicone spoon to spread it out, making sure to get it all the way to the edges.


3. Sprinkle the diced green chiles, fiesta blend cheese, and black olives over the tortillas. The cheese will melt and get all gooey when they’re rolled up—trust me, it’s magic!

4. Starting from one end of each tortilla, tightly roll it up, making sure everything stays inside. When you reach the other end, you’ll have a neat little roll ready to be wrapped up.

5. Wrap each tortilla roll tightly in plastic wrap and let it chill in the fridge for at least 1 hour. This allows the flavors to meld together and makes slicing them later much easier!
6. Once chilled, remove the rolls from the plastic wrap and cut off about 1 inch from each end (don’t let that go to waste—give it a taste!).

7. Then slice the rest into 1-inch pieces, and voilà! You’ve got a platter of pinwheels ready to serve.

And there you have it! These Cheesy Mexican Pinwheels are the perfect blend of creamy, cheesy, and just the right amount of spice. They’re easy to make, so you can prep them in no time, and they’re great for serving at any occasion. Game night, parties, or even just a cozy night at home—they’re always a hit.
The best part? You can make them ahead of time and store them in the fridge until you’re ready to enjoy! So go ahead, give them a try. I guarantee they’ll be the star of your next get-together.
