As an alternative, these wraps can be made into pinwheel appetizers – nice finger food for brunch or a bridal shower. To make into pinwheels, first spread tortillas with some cream cheese before topping with the vegetable-beef mixture; tightly wrap each with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 and up to 24 hours. Cut each wrap into 1-inch (2.5 cm) slices to make about 40 pinwheel appetizers.
