Italian Mini Rollup Pinwheels are the perfect little appetizer you can build with whatever you like these rolls and a great way to use up that leftover turkey or chicken to make a delicious spread for this filling.

I love to use leftovers from the holiday to make this little appetizer.


Leftover turkey is the perfect filling or chicken.


Just mixed with a little mayonnaise, chopped celery, onion, and garlic, you have a quick way to repurpose those leftovers and a great little snack.


You could even freeze the turkey or chicken for this use at another time.


Whether you make these into a BLT, all vegetarian or spread with your favorite cold cuts, these will feed a large crowd at any gathering and the perfect finger food.
