Turkey Club Sandwich Pinwheels are the perfect recipe for parties, BBQs, potlucks, or school lunch! Simple and no-cook, it doesn’t get any easier!
Ingredients
These simple ingredients are easy to find at your local grocery store.
- Large Flour Tortillas – You can use plain tortillas or choose flavors like spinach or sun-dried tomato.
- Mayonnaise – Use whichever brand you prefer or make your own homemade mayonnaise.
- Provolone Cheese – I like to get mine freshly sliced at the deli but you can get the pre-packaged slices, too.
- Deli Turkey – These pinwheels are definitely best with deli-sliced meats rather than packaged meat.
- Bacon – Cook the bacon ahead of time and crumble it for the sandwich.
- Tomato – Thinly slice the tomato before adding it to the sandwich. Thick slices will not hold up as well.
- Bibb Lettuce – I prefer this type of lettuce because it’s hearty enough to hold up well in the pinwheels. You can also use Romaine lettuce.
Variations
Like any sandwich, you can switch up the ingredients for different flavor combinations!
- Meat – Swap out some or all of the turkey for ham, roast beef, or any other deli meat that you like.
- Spread – Add mustard, ketchup, ranch dressing, or other condiments.
- Pickles – Spread on relish or layer pickles in the pinwheel.
- Tortillas – Use corn or opt for another gluten-free variety.
- Cheese – Instead of provolone, use cheddar cheese, mozzarella, or Monterey Jack. Or, try replacing the mayo with cream cheese.
- Vegetables – These pinwheels are a great way to sneak in some veggies, especially for kids or picky eaters. Try adding bell pepper, cucumbers, or spinach.
- Seasoning – Add some extra flavor with onion powder or garlic powder.
How to Make Turkey Club Pinwheels
It takes mere minutes to make these easy pinwheels.
- Fill the tortilla. Gently spread mayo onto the tortillas before layering on the other ingredients. Be sure to use equal amounts on each tortilla.
- Assemble and chill. Roll the tortillas up and wrap them tightly with plastic wrap. Place them in the refrigerator for at least an hour.
- Slice. Remove the rolled tortillas from the refrigerator and pierce them with toothpicks at even spaces before slicing into bite-sized pieces.
- Serve or store. Serve the pinwheels immediately or return them to the refrigerator.
What to Serve With Turkey Club Sandwich Pinwheels
These pinwheels are perfect for serving as part of a spread of appetizers at a party but you can serve them as snacks or as part of a meal, too. We love to serve them with side dishes like potato salad, cole slaw, or macaroni salad.
Storage
Be sure to keep the pinwheels wrapped in plastic wrap when storing to avoid having them dry out.
Make Ahead
It’s best to make these pinwheels within the same day that you intend to serve them so that the vegetables are fresh and the tortilla doesn’t get soggy. However, you can make them up to a day ahead of time.
Refrigerator
Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Freezer
It’s not ideal to freeze the pinwheels — they do not retain their texture when they are thawed.
