Preparation

  1. In medium bowl, mix cream cheese spread, goat cheese, lemon juice and pepper. Divide mixture among tortillas, spreading evenly over tortillas, leaving 1/2-inch border. Top one half of each tortilla with walnuts and strawberries. Evenly place spinach leaves over strawberries.
  2. Starting from side with toppings, roll up very tightly. Cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 2 hours but no longer than 3 hours.
  3. To serve, trim 1 inch from end of each roll, and discard. Cut each roll into 4 (1 1/2-inch) slices.

Expert Tips

  • One 8-oz package of cream cheese can be used instead of cream cheese spread for these strawberry pinwheels. Soften cream cheese as directed on package.
  • Rolling tightly is the key to great-looking, easy-to-slice strawberry-cream cheese bites.
