Description
A quick and easy 15-minute appetizer featuring soft tortillas filled with seasoned cream cheese, smoked salmon, turkey, and mozzarella, then baked until golden and crispy.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6–8 (8-inch) flour tortillas
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning (divided)
- 1 cup shredded low-moisture mozzarella cheese
- 3 oz smoked salmon, chopped
- 3 oz thinly sliced turkey, chopped
- 1 teaspoon dried dill weed
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 10×15 inch baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, 1 tablespoon of everything bagel seasoning, and dried dill until smooth.
- Lay tortillas on a clean surface. If stiff, microwave for 10-15 seconds to soften. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over each tortilla, leaving a 1/2-inch border on one edge.
- Sprinkle shredded mozzarella, chopped salmon, and chopped turkey evenly over the cream cheese. Add red pepper flakes if using.
- Starting from the edge without the border, tightly roll each tortilla into a log. Press the seam side down with a rolling pin to seal.
- Slice each log into 1-inch thick pinwheels (about 6-8 per tortilla). Place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Brush tops with melted butter and sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of everything bagel seasoning.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden brown and cheese is bubbly.
- Let cool for 2 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh chives.
Notes
Ensure cream cheese is fully softened to prevent tearing tortillas. Pat salmon and turkey dry to avoid soggy pinwheels. For best results, use a sharp knife to slice cleanly. Can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 24 hours before baking.
