Chicken Pinwheel Instructions
These pinwheels are so easy to put together. Your kids will love spreading the mixture and rolling up the tortillas. The little finger foods are so fun and your kids will love them!
For the Chicken: For convenience, buy pre-cooked chicken from the store. You can either use packaged, cooked chicken or opt for a rotisserie instead.You can also cook about two large chicken breasts at home any way you prefer. Dice: The bacon and the chicken should be about ¼ inch cubed. Optional: You don’t have to refrigerate the cylinders after rolling them up, but cooling them down makes them easier to cut. Other Ideas: You can easily put the filling into a sandwich or pita pocket. You can still add it to a tortilla but you don’t have to slice it for an even quicker lunch option. Also, adding this mixture over a salad would make an excellent light and healthy meal.
Refrigerate: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Freezer: Wrap tightly, then place in the freezer for up to 2 months. Let them in the fridge before consuming.
