Tortilla Ham & Cheese Pinwheels {Potluck Sunday}

Good morning everyone!!! First off I want to apologize for being such a slacker lately. Not really the best way to kick off the new year is it? I usually try and add at least three posts per week, but lately I am lucky to get one or two recipes posted.

We just put our house up for sale, so it's been really busy around here. I'm sure it will be that way for quite some time, but I promise I wont be a bad blogger for too long. I just wanted to let y'all know that if you see some quite spells here at Mommy's Kitchen that's why.

Now onto a yummier note. Today I wanted to share a recipe for these tasty Tortilla Ham & Cheese Pinwheels pictured above. This is another appetizer that I made for New Years Eve. These little guys are perfect for parties, potlucks or any get together.

I especially love them because they are so versatile. You can fill them with all sorts of yummy ingredients. I chose to use ham and cheese for mine. But turkey, pastrami or even roast beef would be great. I used Swiss and cheddar cheese along with chopped black olives. If you don't like olives you can use chopped green chili's as well. I made a variety to please everyone.

Since my kiddos are not olive eaters I just made plain ham and cheese for them. But for everyone else I loaded them up!!! My favorite part is the creamy cream cheese and ranch filling. You can eat them plain or dip them in ranch dressing or picante sauce. These yummy little pinwheels would be the perfect addition if you are planning on having a big super bowl party.

Tortilla Ham & Cheese Pinwheels

Drain the sliced olives and set aside.

Place two slices of ham on top of the cream cheese mixture. 

Add sliced Swiss cheese and sprinkle on shredded cheddar cheese and olives.
