Cheeseburger Pinwheels
- Prep Time: 20 minutes
- Cook Time: 10 minutes
- Total Time: 30 minutes
- Yield: Serves 5 1x
Ingredients
1 tbsp (15 mL) oil, divided (approx)
1 cup (250 mL) diced mushrooms
1 cup (250 mL) diced onions
¼ tsp (1 mL) EACH salt and pepper
1 cup (250 mL) finely chopped cooked Roast Beef or crumbled cooked Extra Lean Ground Beef
¼ cup (60 mL) diced dill pickles
½ cup (125 mL) EACH shredded Cheddar cheese and ricotta cheese
3 large (10-inch/25 cm) whole wheat flour tortillas
¼ cup (60 mL) ketchup
1 tbsp (15 mL) prepared mustard
Instructions
- Heat 2 tsp (10 mL) of the oil over medium-high heat in a large saucepan. Cook mushrooms, onions, salt and pepper, stirring, for about 6 minutes or until brown and excess liquid is evaporated. Transfer to a bowl.
- Add beef, dill pickles, Cheddar cheese and ricotta cheese; stir well.
- Place tortillas on a cutting board in a single layer. Spread beef mixture evenly over tortillas, dividing equally. Roll up each jelly-roll style, to make 3 tortilla logs. Slice logs crosswise into 2-inch (5 cm) thick pinwheels (about 15 pieces total).
- Heat remaining oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Fry pinwheels, in batches as necessary, on each cut side for 1 minute, carefully flipping them over, until browned on both sides. Transfer to a plate. Add more oil to skillet between batches, if necessary.
- Whisk ketchup with mustard in a small bowl and serve alongside pinwheels for dipping.
