Time 1h20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings (about 24 pinwheels)

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 ounces shredded yellow Cheddar
8 ounces chopped pimientos, very well drained
2 ounces cream cheese
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
2 scallions, finely chopped
Kosher salt
3 burrito-size flour tortillas (10 inches in diameter)
4 1/2 cups loosely packed arugula

Steps:

  • Combine the Cheddar, pimientos, cream cheese, mayonnaise, cayenne, scallions and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Use a potato masher to mash the ingredients together to make a cohesive spread.
  • Lay the tortillas out on a work surface and evenly spread one-third of the cheese mixture on each, leaving a 1-inch border along the edge. Top each with 1 1/2 cups of the arugula. Roll the tortillas tightly, tucking the arugula in as you go. Lay the wraps on a platter seam-side down and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour.
  • Transfer the wraps to a cutting board. Trim off the edges, then use a serrated knife to carefully cut them into 1-inch rounds. Arrange the pinwheels on a platter and serve immediately or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 4 hours.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 12

nonstick cooking spray
4 fajita size flour tortillas
1 egg, beaten
3/4 c shredded sharp cheddar cheese
8 large eggs
1/4 c milk
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 jar(s) (4 0unce) jar diced pimientos, drained
2 Tbsp butter
1/4 c finely chopped red onion
1 pkg (3-ounce) package cream cheese, cut into very small cubes

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 4 wells of a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray, spacing them out so there are empty cups between them. Microwave tortillas until warm and pliable. Brush the front and back of each tortilla with 1 beaten egg, then sprinkle with the shredded cheese on both sides, pressing onto the tortilla to make it stick. (The entire tortilla does not need to be covered in cheese.) Place the tortillas in the sprayed muffin cups, lining the inside of the cup to form a well. (Some of the cheese may fall off. That's okay.) Bake for 15-20 minutes or until very golden brown and crispy. (The cheese should look dried out.)
  • 2. Meanwhile, whisk together the 8 large eggs and next 3 ingredients. Stir in pimientos. Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat; add the onions and cook until soft. Pour in egg mixture and cook, without stirring, until eggs begin to set on bottom. Sprinkle cream cheese cubes evenly over egg mixture; draw a spatula across bottom of skillet to form large curds. Cook until eggs are thickened but still moist. (Do not stir constantly.) Remove from heat.
  • 3. Fill each tortilla cup with 1/4 of the eggs. Wrap in a piece of deli wrap paper or paper towel and head out the door!
