Its holiday season and that means all the treats!
Sometimes potluck style foods can add up quick so I want to share with you one of my simple, easy and affordable snack food that you can take to your next party.
Mexican Style Pinwheels.
I honestly don't remember where I first saw these, but over time I've added my own spin, flare and adjustments.
Ingredients:
Flour tortillas : .89 cents x 2 = 1.78
Canned Chicken: .98 x3 = 2.94
Taco Seasoning: .23 cents
Cream Cheese: 1.89
Shredded Cheese: $1.99
Optional:
Hot Sauce: .89 cents
Rotel tomato & green chilies: .98 cents
Total cost: $9.72
Directions
Mix all ingredients in a big bowl! I prefer the hot sauce over Rotel just because its smoother and doesn't make the tortillas soggy. If you do use the tomato and green chilies, be sure and drain the juice as much as possible!
I also love to use my mixer to stir it all together it makes the chicken super fine and the cream cheese blend in smoothly.
Add the hot sauce to YOUR liking. I like a good in-between so I never have an actual measurement for this. I just sample the mixture a lot.
Once its mixed, use a soft spatula to spread across tortillas. You need a thin layer covering one side. Then you roll it up and cut it in to circular chunks.
You can make pinwheels in various flavors but this is definitely my favorite! They go fast at get togethers.
