Chicken Taco Mexican Pinwheels
These Mexican pinwheels are perfect for ANY party or get together! Made with mouthwatering chicken taco flavors, they’re a favorite with both kids and adults!
It’s party time!! Okay maybe not really party time, but one bite of these Mexican pinwheels and you’ll think there’s a party going on! I actually had these at a get together with my in-laws, and my mother-in-law had made these. Like me, she loves to cook, so naturally we were talking about the food, and she mentioned that she’d found this recipe on Old El Paso‘s site. After looking it over, and making some tweaks of my own, I created pure deliciousness!
I like a LOT of cilantro flavor, so if you’re not a huge fan, feel free to adjust that amount to your liking. As a bonus, these aren’t spicy at all (that we noticed), so even the kiddos can snack on these Mexican pinwheels! You could also experiment with different flavored tortillas as the wraps… like maybe a spinach one? I knew there was NO way I’d get a green tortilla by my kids, so I didn’t even attempt it lol.
