Instructions

1. Prepare the dressing

In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, red wine vinegar, Italian herbs, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.

2. Spread the dressing

Lay out a tortilla on a clean surface. Spread a thin layer of dressing evenly over the tortilla, leaving a 1/2-inch border.

Layer a quarter of the ham, salami, pepperoni, and provolone cheese evenly over the tortilla.

4. Add vegetables

Sprinkle with chopped roasted red peppers, banana peppers, shredded lettuce, and red onion.

5. Roll up the tortilla

Tightly roll up the tortilla into a log. Repeat with remaining tortillas and fillings.

6. Chill the rolls (optional)

Wrap each rolled tortilla in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes for easier slicing.

7. Slice and serve

Using a sharp knife, slice each roll into 1-inch pinwheels. Arrange on a platter and serve chilled.

Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung

Pat the roasted red and banana peppers dry before adding to prevent sogginess. Keep the shredded lettuce crisp and fresh to maintain texture. Chilling the rolled tortillas wrapped in plastic wrap helps achieve clean, even slices for neat pinwheels.
