They’re great for a simple lunch, but they’re also a delicious finger food and appetizer that both kids and adults love, so go ahead and add them to your potluck spread or party platter!
Anything that is bite-sized and on a toothpick is just fun, right?
While traditional pinwheel sandwiches are made with flour tortillas, deli meat, and a cream cheese mixture, these little bites are made with a layer of peanut butter and a layer of jelly on regular sandwich bread.
Here is how to make them:
