Italian Pinwheels

I found this recipe on the internet.  Try making them, they are easy and delicious for a party. 

3 Large burrito soft shells
8 ounce softened cream cheese
1/4 cup italian bread crumbs
1/4 cup parmesan cheese (you could substitute cheddar cheese)
2/3 cup diced banana peppers from a jar, dry most of the liquid
2/3 cup diced roasted red peppers from a jar, dry most of the liquid
9 slices of provolone cheese
1/2 lbs Genoa salami (from the deli, I have them slice it thin)
pepperoni slices (I buy one pack you will have leftovers)
romaine lettuce

Mix softened cream cheese, italian bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, banana peppers and roasted red peppers together. divid in 3rds.

Take 1/3rd of the cream cheese mixture and spread on one soft shell. Repeat with the other 2 soft shells.

Put 3 slices of provolone cheese in the center from left to right.

Layer genoa salami around the entire soft shell.

Next layer pepperoni. Don't layer them side by side. spread them out so the soft shell does get too fat to roll.  That is why I have the deli slice the genoa thin. 

Last, add some romaine lettuce on the bottom half of the soft shell only.  Make sure you split the ribs so it isn't too bulky.

Start to roll up the soft shell closest to you. Make sure you roll it tight and don't push out the filling. 

Wrap the 3 roll ups in plastic wrap and put in the refrigerator for at least one hour to have the cream cheese get hard for easy cutting.

Then cut off the ends and cut slices to equal 8 slices.  Don't cut them too thin or they will fall apart and not too large.  

Best to make them the day you are going to eat them. They did still taste good and weren't too soggy the next day. 


 you cut the ends off. but I save them for later to eat.
