Kids Can Make: Ham and Scallion Cream Cheese Pinwheel Sandwiches
- 1 large head romaine lettuce
- 4 ounces whipped cream cheese
- 4 scallions, thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Four 10-inch flour tortillas
- 8 slices deli ham (about 8 ounces)
- 1 whole roasted pepper from a jar, sliced into 1/4-inch strips (about 1/2 cup)
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- Special equipment: toothpicks
- Carefully wash and dry the 4 largest outer romaine leaves, trying not to tear them.
- Cut the leaves at the base, where they were connected to the root; the leaves should be about 9 inches long.
- Using a vegetable peeler, shave the center rib so the leaves roll up more easily.
- Set aside.
- Stir the cream cheese, scallions, mustard, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl to combine.
- Lay 1 of the tortillas on a clean work surface, and place 1 of the romaine leaves neatly on top.
- Place 2 slices of the ham next to each other to fit neatly on top of the lettuce.
- Spread 2 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture over the ham, then line up a quarter of the roasted pepper strips along one edge.
- Line up 1/4 cup of the shredded carrots on top of the peppers.
- Roll up the wrap tightly, starting from the edge with the peppers and carrots, so the wrap holds together with the peppers and carrots in the middle.
- Place the wrap seam-side down.
- Repeat with the remaining tortillas, peppers, carrots, ham and cream cheese mixture.
- Cut the wraps into 1-inch pieces, then skewer each piece from the top through the seam side with a toothpick or skewer.
