Sometimes as a parent you don't get to enjoy the finer things in life, yeah I know that was a stretch, but if you have picky kids you have to eat the same boring stuff all the time. Today I was in the mood for ham and swiss, but with a twist.

I could taste tomato and onions, and as soon as I added the tomatoes to the inner of the pinwheel, I thought to myself, "Self, the perfect topping for these pinwheel sandwiches is that Sun‑Dried Tomato & Basil Seasoned Parmesan right above your head in the cabinet" and voila I had a masterpiece.

How To Make Pinwheel Sandwiches

For this pinwheel sandwich recipe, I used my oven because I wanted hot ham and cheese. But you can make thes your own in so many ways. Make this a cold recipe by using flour tortillas. Tortilla pinwheels are quick and easy.

The use of a tortilla also eliminates having to use the oven or air fryer when making this delicious finger food.
