To make bacon cheddar ranch pinwheels, you need a few key ingredients. Start with 4 large flour tortillas. These serve as the base for your pinwheels. Next, grab 8 ounces of softened cream cheese. This gives the pinwheels a rich and creamy texture. Then, use 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese for that classic cheese flavor. You also need 1/2 cup of cooked bacon, crumbled into small bits. This adds a savory crunch. Don’t forget 1/4 cup of ranch dressing for that tangy taste. Finally, add 1/4 cup of chopped green onions and 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder. Salt and pepper to taste finish off the mix. These ingredients work together to create a flavorful dish that everyone loves.

Ingredients
  

4 large flour tortillas

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/2 cup cooked bacon, crumbled

1/4 cup ranch dressing

1/4 cup chopped green onions

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, ranch dressing, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix until smooth.

    Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, and chopped green onions until evenly incorporated.

      Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture over the entire tortilla, leaving about 1/2 inch of border around the edges.

        Starting from one edge, tightly roll the tortilla away from you, ensuring the filling stays intact. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.

          Once all tortillas are rolled, wrap them in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

            After chilling, remove the pinwheels from the wrap and slice them into 1-inch pieces. Arrange them on a serving platter.
