These Ultimate Chicken Salad Pinwheels are not your average chicken salad wraps.  They are filled with whipped cream cheese, shredded lettuce, and provolone cheese.  They really are the ultimate chicken salad rollups!

I don’t know about you all, but I certainly don’t want to spend a great deal of time in the kitchen when I’m off of work for the summer.  Luckily these are great little rollups to make ahead and keep in the fridge for when you are starved.  I also love to make them for  vacation each year.   But one of my favorite uses for them is as an alternative to chicken salad sandwiches at a shower.  They really are a hit and get eaten up very quickly.  I first learned to make them from my friend’s mom.  She made  them for my friend’s baby shower, and they’ve become a recipe I’ll never forget.

First start off by spreading a large tortilla with whipped cream cheese.

Along one edge. layer the provolone cheese.

Top with shredded lettuce.

 Top lettuce with chicken salad.

Finally, roll them up and place in fridge to chill before slicing.

Tips for making these Ultimate Chicken Salad Pinwheels:

• Use burrito size tortillas.  You can even use whole wheat or low-carb.  Those will just be smaller in size, so use less chicken salad, and you can make a few more rollups.
• I make some without lettuce since my kids can be picky about that.  However, I love the lettuce on these!
• Use store-bought chicken salad if you’d like!
• Add a little white onion (about 1/8 of an onion) when processing chicken salad for a nice kick. You can also add sweet relish.
