Ingredients
  

4 large whole grain tortillas

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1 tsp Dijon mustard

12 oz sliced turkey breast

1 large apple, thinly sliced (preferably a tart variety like Granny Smith)

1 cup baby spinach leaves

½ cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: Honey or balsamic glaze for drizzling

Instructions
 

Prepare the Spread: In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and Dijon mustard. Mix until smooth and well incorporated. Add salt and pepper to taste.

    Assemble the Tortillas: Lay out the whole grain tortillas on a clean surface. Spread an even layer of the cream cheese mixture over each tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.

      Layer the Fillings: On each tortilla, place slices of turkey breast evenly across the cream cheese. Follow with apple slices and baby spinach leaves. Sprinkle the shredded sharp cheddar cheese on top of the spinach.

        Roll Up: Starting from one end, carefully roll the tortilla tightly to form a pinwheel. Ensure the fillings stay inside as you roll. Repeat this process for the remaining tortillas.

          Slice the Pinwheels: Once all the tortillas are rolled, use a sharp knife to slice them into 1-inch wide pieces. Arrange the pinwheels neatly on a serving platter.

            Serve: Drizzle with honey or balsamic glaze for an added touch of sweetness and serve immediately, or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
