Fiesta Pinwheels

Teresa Ambra
Wonderful Tex-Mex appetizer that's extra spicy due to using Jalapeno Cheddar Wraps in addition to the diced chilies, salsa and taco seasoning in the recipe. This appetizer is so easy to prepare, making it perfect for tailgating parties, potlucks and holiday parties like Cinco De Mayo or summer holiday fun.
