Pin It Recipe FAQs
- → How do I keep the pinwheels from falling apart?
Use a thin, even layer of the mustard-mayo spread to help hold the ingredients together before rolling tightly. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up the rolls, making slicing easier.
- → Can I use other cheeses instead of provolone?
Yes, mild cheeses like mozzarella or Swiss work well and provide a creamy texture that complements the turkey and vegetables.
- → What vegetables pair best with these pinwheels?
Fresh baby spinach and thinly sliced red bell pepper add crunch and brightness. You can also add cucumber or shredded carrots for extra freshness.
- → How should I store leftover pinwheels?
Store wrapped tightly in plastic wrap or an airtight container in the refrigerator. Consume within 1-2 days for the best taste and texture.
- → Are these pinwheels suitable for make-ahead meals?
Yes, you can prepare and chill them a few hours ahead. Chilling helps the flavors meld and makes slicing neater.
