Quick and easy pinwheel wraps featuring nutty brown butter, creamy avocado, and savory turkey, perfect for busy lunches or snacks.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 large flour tortillas (10-inch size)
  • 8 ounces thinly sliced deli turkey breast
  • 1 large ripe avocado, mashed
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup fresh baby spinach or arugula
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: thinly sliced red onion or green onion
  • Optional: crumbled crispy bacon
  • Optional: sprinkle of smoked paprika or chili flakes

Instructions

  1. Brown the butter: Place 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Stir frequently as the butter melts, then starts to foam and brown. When you notice a nutty aroma and golden specks forming, remove from heat immediately and transfer the brown butter to a heatproof bowl to cool slightly.
  2. Prepare the avocado spread: In a mixing bowl, mash 1 ripe avocado with a fork until creamy but still a bit chunky. Add 4 ounces of softened cream cheese, 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix until combined. Stir in 2 tablespoons of the cooled brown butter to infuse the spread with rich, nutty flavor.
  3. Assemble the wraps: Lay one flour tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a generous layer of the brown butter avocado cream cheese across the tortilla, leaving about ½ inch border on the edges. Layer 2 ounces of sliced turkey breast evenly over the spread. Add a handful of baby spinach or arugula on top. If using, scatter thin slices of red onion or crumbled bacon.
  4. Roll and chill: Roll the tortilla tightly from one edge to the other, pressing gently to compact the wrap. Wrap it snugly in plastic wrap or parchment paper. Repeat with remaining tortillas and fillings. Chill the wraps in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes to help them set and make slicing easier.
  5. Slice into pinwheels: Remove the wraps from the fridge and unwrap carefully. Using a sharp knife, cut each roll into 1-inch pinwheels. Arrange on a platter or plate.

Notes

Watch the butter carefully while browning to avoid burning. Use softened cream cheese for easy spreading. Chill wraps before slicing for neat pinwheels. Optional to toast pinwheels lightly in a dry skillet for added crunch.
