Description
A crowd-pleasing appetizer that combines spicy buffalo sauce with creamy cheese in a convenient pinwheel format.
Ingredients
- Soft tortillas
- Shredded chicken (cooked)
- Cream cheese (softened)
- Buffalo sauce
- Optional: Chopped green onions for garnish
- Optional: Diced celery for crunch
Instructions
- Prepare the filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, and buffalo sauce. Stir until thoroughly mixed. Optionally, add chopped green onions or diced celery.
- Spread the mixture: Place a tortilla on a clean surface or cutting board. Spread an even layer of the buffalo chicken mixture across the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Roll it up: Starting at one end, roll the tortilla tightly to create a log shape, keeping the filling tucked inside.
- Slice and serve: Use a sharp knife to cut the rolled tortilla into bite-sized pinwheels. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready.
Notes
For serving, pair with ranch or blue cheese dressing. Consider using flavored tortillas for variety. Can be stored in the refrigerator for 3-4 days or frozen for 2 months.
