1. Can I make Hye Roller Sandwiches the night before?

Yes! These sandwiches are ideal for prepping in advance. Simply roll them, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight. Slice them right before serving for best results.

2. What type of tortilla works best for pinwheel sandwiches?

Large, soft flour tortillas work best. Burrito-size tortillas are perfect because they hold more filling and roll tightly without tearing. Avoid stiff or dry tortillas, as they may crack.

3. How do I keep the pinwheels from unrolling?

Make sure to spread the cream cheese mixture all the way to the edges—it acts like glue. Rolling tightly and refrigerating before slicing also helps the wraps hold their shape.

4. Can I freeze Hye Roller Sandwiches?

It’s not recommended to freeze them, as the texture of the lettuce, tomatoes, and cream cheese can become soggy or grainy when thawed. They’re best eaten fresh or within 2 days.

Instructions

Soften the cream cheese and mix it with the powdered Italian dressing until smooth and fluffy.
Lay a tortilla flat and spread the cream cheese mixture all the way to the edges.
On one-third of the tortilla, layer ham, then add tomato slices, red onion, pickles, shredded lettuce, and top with salami.
Roll the tortilla tightly from the filling side, tucking the ingredients in as you go. Seal the edge with extra cream cheese if needed.
Repeat with remaining tortillas, place them on a tray, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Slice off the ends, then cut each roll into 1.5-inch pinwheels, wiping the knife clean between cuts for neat presentation.

Notes

Use shaved meat to prevent sliding during slicing.
Ensure cream cheese is spread to the edges for better adhesion.
Refrigerate rolls before slicing for clean cuts.
Use a damp paper towel to clean the knife between cuts.
Best consumed within 2 days for freshness.
