Those dreaded tortilla rolls with cream cheese and odds and ends inside seem to turn up at every lady gathering I go to and are usually quite good.


I have a great recipe for those things with chicken orange and jalepeno. There is a grapefruit salsa in it too. I think I should make these for my next party as my husband always asks for them.

Mary, those do sound good, please share. I've had great ones, and beyond awful ones. That's why to me they are dreaded, because I never know what will be in them. (once had mayo and salsa ones....eeek)

Mayo and salsa? Who read that recipe and said "hey, that sounds yummy".
I will vouch for these and I served them once at an office open house for my husband and they were a big hit so they have been tested by a broad audience.

8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 tablespoon jalapeno chilies, chopped
2 tablespoons orange marmalade
1 tablespoon green onions, chopped

2 cups fresh spinach, cut in very thin strips
1 avocado, sliced
Florida Grapefruit Salsa (recipe to follow)
Mix softened cream cheese with jalapeno chilies, orange marmalade,
green onions and parsley. Spread on middle of flour tortillas,
making sure to leave at lease 1/2 inch around edge. Top with
several thin chicken strips. Top with avocado and shredded
spinach. Top with dollop of salsa.

Roll tortillas and refrigerate until chilled (approximately 4
hours).

Cut tortillas into 1 inch slices. Arrange on plate and garnish
with Florida citrus fruit.

Servings/Yield

48 pinwheels

I have left them longer than 4 hours before slicing with no problem. I also have subbed citrus fruit from places other than Florida with no ill effects.
