Description

Transform your boring sandwiches into a playful, portable, and satisfying meal with the Roll-Up Fun Box. This recipe features colorful pinwheels, crunchy veggies, and a small treat, perfect for school, work, or on-the-go snacking.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large flour or sandwich wrap tortilla (spinach, tomato herb, or gluten-free options work too)
  • 23 tbsp cream cheese (softened), hummus, or nut/seed butter
  • Optional: mashed avocado, whipped ricotta, pesto
  • Deli turkey, ham, or thinly sliced cucumber
  • Optional: banana for a sweet roll
  • Baby spinach, shredded carrots, thinly sliced bell peppers
  • Sprinkle of everything bagel seasoning
  • Cherry tomatoes, apple slices, grapes, sugar snap peas
  • Whole-grain crackers or a mini cookie/dark chocolate square

Instructions

  1. Warm slightly if straight from the fridge (10 seconds in the microwave or a quick dry skillet pass) to prevent cracking.
  2. Evenly cover the tortilla with your chosen spread. Leave a ½-inch border along the edge farthest from you to seal the roll.
  3. Thin, even layers of protein or veggies. For delicate greens, layer on top of the protein.
  4. Roll from the edge closest to you, tucking fillings as you go. Seal the log with the clean border.
  5. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30–60 minutes. (Quick tip: 15 minutes in the freezer works in a pinch.)
  6. Using a sharp serrated knife, cut 1-inch slices to reveal the pinwheel spirals.
  7. Arrange pinwheels in one section of a divided container.
  8. Add colorful sides in the other sections: veggies, fruit, crackers, or a small treat.
  9. Aim for a rainbow of colors and textures for visual appeal and balanced nutrition.
