  • Total Time: 45
  • Yield: 20-24 pinwheels

Ingredients

2 cups Cooked shredded chicken

1/2 cup Buffalo sauce

8 oz Cream cheese, softened

1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese

1/4 cup Green onions, chopped

4 Large flour tortillas

1/4 cup Ranch dressing (optional)

Instructions

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions. Mix until well combined.

3. If desired, drizzle a small amount of ranch dressing over the chicken mixture for added flavor.

4. Tightly roll up each tortilla, pressing gently to seal.

5. Wrap the rolled tortillas in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

6. Once chilled, use a sharp knife to slice the rolls into 1-inch pinwheels.

7. Arrange the pinwheels on a serving platter and enjoy!

Notes

Pro-Tips:

• Use rotisserie chicken for a quick and easy prep.

• Make sure the cream cheese is softened before mixing for a smooth texture.

• Refrigerate the rolled tortillas for at least 30 minutes before slicing to hold their shape.

• For an extra kick, add a dash of hot sauce to the buffalo sauce mixture.

Variations:

• Vegetarian Option: Replace the chicken with black beans and add diced bell peppers.

• Spicy Jalapeño: Add sliced jalapeños to the chicken mixture.

• Blue Cheese Delight: Substitute the shredded cheddar with crumbled blue cheese.
