These Veggie Pinwheels are a fresh, healthy, and flavorful appetizer filled with crisp vegetables, creamy feta, and tangy tzatziki sauce. Perfect for any occasion, these pinwheels are quick to prepare and easily customizable.
Ingredients
1/2 cup tzatziki sauce
8 ounces crumbled feta cheese
1 small English cucumber, finely diced
3 Roma tomatoes, seeded and diced
2 yellow or orange mini sweet peppers, seeded and finely diced
1 red onion, sliced
1/2 cup sliced pitted Kalamata olives
4 whole wheat tortillas
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Instructions
- Make the feta mixture: Place the tzatziki sauce and feta cheese in a bowl and whisk together until well combined and almost smooth.
- Prepare the veggies: Dice the cucumber, tomatoes, sweet peppers, and red onion, and slice the Kalamata olives.
- Assemble the pinwheels: Lay one tortilla on a clean cutting board. Spread about 2 spoonfuls of the feta cheese mixture over the tortilla. Top it with the diced veggies and olives.
- Roll up the tortilla: Tightly roll up the tortilla in cling film and refrigerate. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and veggie filling.
- Slice and serve: Once chilled (at least 1 hour), remove the cling film and slice the rolled tortillas into 1.5-inch rounds. Arrange the pinwheels on a platter.
- Garnish and enjoy: Sprinkle the pinwheels with dried oregano for extra flavor and serve.
Notes
Veggie swaps: Swap the vegetables for your favorites such as spinach, bell peppers, zucchini, or shredded carrots for extra crunch.
Dairy-free version: Replace the feta cheese with dairy-free cheese or hummus for a vegan-friendly option.
Spicy kick: Add red pepper flakes or a few slices of jalapeños for added heat.
