These Greek tortilla pinwheels are filled with creamy hummus, roasted red peppers, feta, and fresh herbs, making a quick, flavorful snack perfect for parties and casual lunches.

Ingredients

Scale
  • Large flour tortillas (e.g., Mission brand)
  • 1 cup creamy hummus (plain or garlic-flavored)
  • 1/2 cup roasted red peppers, drained and chopped
  • 1/4 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
  • 1/3 cup feta cheese, crumbled (optional but recommended)
  • Handful fresh spinach or baby arugula
  • 1 teaspoon fresh oregano, chopped (or dried oregano)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of creamy hummus, 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, 1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until smooth and well mixed.
  2. Drain and finely chop 1/2 cup roasted red peppers, slice 1/4 cup Kalamata olives, crumble 1/3 cup feta cheese, and rinse a handful of fresh spinach leaves.
  3. Optional: Heat each large flour tortilla for about 20 seconds per side in a dry skillet over medium heat until pliable and lightly toasted.
  4. Lay one tortilla flat on your prep surface. Using a spatula, spread a thin, even layer of the hummus mixture over the entire surface, leaving about 1/2 inch border around the edges.
  5. Evenly distribute the chopped roasted peppers, sliced olives, crumbled feta, and spinach over the hummus layer. Drizzle lightly with 1 teaspoon olive oil.
  6. Starting from one edge, roll the tortilla snugly into a log shape, pressing gently to hold the filling inside. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to firm up.
  7. Remove the roll from the fridge and unwrap. Using a sharp knife, slice into 1-inch thick rounds. Arrange on a serving platter.
  8. Serve fresh or keep covered in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Optional: let sit at room temperature 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

Use room temperature hummus for easier spreading. Pat roasted peppers dry if too wet. Chill rolled tortillas before slicing to prevent filling from spilling. Lightly toast tortillas to prevent cracking. Use a sharp serrated knife and gentle sawing motion when slicing.
