Buffalo Chicken Pinwheels

Buffalo Chicken Pinwheels are an appetizer made with buffalo chicken, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, red bell pepper, green onions, and ranch dressing, rolled up in a flour tortilla and cut into pieces. Pinwheels are an easy-to-make snack or appetizer that has a variety of ingredients rolled up into a flour tortilla. The filled tortillas are then cut into circular pieces, like a pinwheel! This particular recipe is made with rotisserie chicken that is given a kick from buffalo sauce. It’s all the flavors of buffalo chicken in finger food that goes perfectly dipped in a side of blue cheese or ranch dressing.

Ingredients:
1½ blocks (12 ounces) cream cheese, softened
½ cup (128 g) buffalo sauce
¼ cup (60 g) ranch dressing, or blue cheese
2 cups rotisserie chicken, chopped
1 cup (113 g) sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
¼ cup red bell pepper, diced (about ½ of a red bell pepper)
6 flour tortillas, 8 inches
3-4 medium green onions, thinly sliced (approximately ¼ cup), reserving some for garnish
buffalo sauce, ranch, or blue cheese dressing, for dipping

Instructions:
In a large mixing bowl, stir together cream cheese, buffalo sauce, and ranch dressing until well combined. Add in chicken, cheese, red bell pepper, and most of the green onions. Mix until well blended. Divide buffalo chicken mixture between the tortilla shells and spread out evenly. (I used about ⅔ cup of the mixture per tortilla.) Roll each shell up tightly, place in a shallow dish, and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 1 hour, up to 24 hours. When ready, slice the tortillas into 1-inch pieces. Serve with extra buffalo sauce, ranch, or blue cheese dressing for dipping.
