Ingredients
Scale
Dip Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
- 1 cup frozen chopped spinach (thawed and drained)
- 1/2 cup artichoke hearts (diced)
- 1/4 cup sour cream (or plain Greek yogurt)
- 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Tortillas
- 2 large flour tortillas
Instructions
- Prepare the dip mixture: In a small bowl, thoroughly mix together the softened cream cheese, thawed and drained chopped spinach, diced artichoke hearts, sour cream (or Greek yogurt), freshly grated Parmesan cheese, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, and salt until well combined and creamy.
- Spread the dip onto tortillas: Lay out the large flour tortillas on a flat surface, then evenly spread the prepared spinach artichoke mixture over each tortilla. You can make the layer as thick or thin as you prefer, with a thicker layer giving richer flavor and sturdier pinwheels.
- Roll up the tortillas: Carefully roll each tortilla tightly from one edge to the other, forming a log shape. Be sure to roll firmly without squeezing out the filling.
- Chill the rolled tortillas: Place the rolled tortilla logs into the freezer for approximately 10 minutes. This step solidifies the dip, helping the rolls hold their shape and making it easier to cut cleanly into pinwheels.
- Slice into pinwheels: Remove the rolls from the freezer and use a sharp knife to cut them into 1/2 inch thick slices. Arrange them on a serving platter and serve immediately as delicious finger foods.
Notes
- These pinwheels capture the classic spinach artichoke dip flavors in a convenient handheld form, perfect for parties and gatherings.
- Using cream cheese softened to room temperature makes mixing easier and achieves a creamier texture.
- Freezing the rolled tortillas briefly is key to getting clean slices without the filling oozing out.
- You can substitute sour cream with Greek yogurt for a tangier and healthier option.
- Adjust the red pepper flakes to suit your preferred spice level.
