I made this recipe for PAC Spring 2008. These pinwheels are easy to make and absolutely delicious! I was unable to find any dried beef so I just omitted it and followed the rest of the recipe as directed. Oh! I also added a layer of fresh baby spinach leaves on top of the cheese mixture. The spinach added a nice colour and made the pinwheels look quite festive, as I had used sundried tomato tortillas (red). My children practically inhaled these and asked if I could send them in their lunches every day! I don't think I'll make them that often, but they will be making a regular appearance both in school lunches and on the buffet table. Thank you for a really tasty recipe!
