Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz vegan cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup vegan mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon dried dill
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (or to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 cup broccoli florets, very finely chopped
- 1/2 cup carrots, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup shredded vegan cheddar cheese
- 4 (8-inch) flour tortillas
Instructions
- Mix the Base:
In a medium mixing bowl, combine vegan cream cheese, vegan mayonnaise, parsley, dried dill, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste. - Add Vegetables and Cheese:
Fold in finely chopped broccoli, carrots, and vegan cheddar cheese. Mix until evenly distributed. - Prepare Tortillas:
Lay tortillas flat on a clean work surface. Spread 1/4 of the mixture evenly over each tortilla, covering all the way to the edges. - Roll Tightly:
Starting from one end, roll each tortilla tightly into a log shape. - Chill:
Wrap each rolled tortilla in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up. - Slice and Serve:
Remove from refrigerator, unwrap, and slice into 1-inch pinwheels. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
Notes
- Chop vegetables very finely for clean slices and easier rolling.
- If tortillas crack, warm them for 10 seconds in the microwave under a damp paper towel.
- Pinwheels can be made up to 24 hours in advance.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3–4 days.
- For extra flavor, add finely chopped green onions or a pinch of smoked paprika.
