Ingredients

  • 4 oz cream cheese
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup vegetable dry soup mix such as Knorr
  • 1/2 cup crispy bacon crumbs or pieces
  • 4 oz diced water chestnuts
  • 4 large spinach tortillas

Instructions

  • Finely chop the water chestnuts. Their crunch will add a delightful texture to the creamy filling. Ensure the spinach is fully thawed and well-drained. Press it with paper towels or a clean kitchen towel to remove as much moisture as possible.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the spinach, softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, and Knorr Vegetable Recipe Mix. Stir until the mixture is well combined.
  • Add in the chopped water chestnuts, and bacon pieces. Mix gently but thoroughly to distribute all ingredients evenly.
  • Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread one-fourth of the spinach mixture evenly over the tortilla, leaving about a ½-inch border around the edges. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
  • Starting from one end, roll each tortilla tightly into a log, ensuring the filling stays evenly distributed. Wrap each roll in plastic wrap to hold its shape.
  • Place the wrapped rolls in the refrigerator and chill for at least 1 hour. This step is essential for firming up the rolls, making them easier to slice.
  • When ready to serve, remove the plastic wrap from each roll. Using a sharp knife, trim 2–3 inches off the ends (these can be a chef’s treat or you can discard!). Slice each roll into 1-inch pieces, yielding 6 pinwheels per roll.
  • Serve on a platter and enjoy.
