Tips for Making Smoked Salmon Pinwheel Sandwiches
- Find fresh dill in the produce section in the grocery store. Many have it available in a snap-close package or in a plantable herb. You can also find fresh dill to plant at the local home improvement store in the nursery area.
- If you cannot find fresh dill for the smoked salmon pinwheels, use herb cream cheese instead. You can find this in the dairy section of your grocery store.
- When serving older guests (not children), you can opt to keep the smoked salmon in strips. Below, you’ll see I cut it into bite-sized pieces for the kids.
Ingredients For Salmon Pinwheel Tortilla Roll Ups
Though I used large flour tortillas, you can make things a bit more colorful and use spinach tortillas. This recipe also works very well without the ranch seasoning.
- Large flour tortillas
- Cream cheese
- Smoked salmon
- Fresh dill
- Ranch seasoning

Add the cream cheese and ranch seasoning to a small bowl. Mix thoroughly.
Chop the fresh dill finely. You can opt to serve this on the side or sprinkled on top if you want.
Spread cream cheese mixture onto tortillas. Try to get just inside the outside edge.
Add the salmon to the tortillas. I prefer to use small bites, but if serving for adults, you can use strips of smoked salmon.
Sprinkle the fresh dill onto the tortillas.
Roll the tortillas gently, but tightly. You can refrigerate the roll to help keep a nice, round look to each of the cuts.
Cut into one-inch pieces. Serve on a platter and enjoy!
Notes for Making Smoked Salmon Pinwheels
- Using a serrated or large bread knife is the best style to use when cutting the tortillas. A regular knife will not cut through as easily. The serrated knife cuts through like butter!
- When cutting the smoked salmon pinwheel sandwiches, use a freshly sharpened serrated knife. This makes slicing the tortillas easier
- If the local grocery store does not have smokes salmon, pop into the local deli. They will be happy to help you. Ask for some fresh cucumber slices to go on the side.
