Tuna Salad Pinwheels are a great appetizer to make for a good ole get together. Make them before so you’re not rushing the day of the party getting food together.

If this one isn’t your cup of tea…you can check out my Chicken Salad Pinwheels. Or the classic Ham and Cheese Pinwheels.
Can I make pinwheels the day before?
Yes, in fact, my recipe calls for chilling/setting in the fridge overnight. This is also helpful when you have lots to do for a party or get together and these are on the menu.
How long do pinwheels stay good?
Pinwheels will last in the fridge, in an airtight container, for about 4 days, considering what’s in them. Pinwheels with just meat and cheese will keep longer than ones like these. Keep that in mind.
Can you freeze tortilla pinwheels?
You can, they will keep, but they may lose some of their quality (texture/taste) if stored too long.

Tuna Salad Pinwheels
Ingredients
- 2 2.6 oz Pkg Albacore, In Water
- 1 Boiled Egg, Chopped
- 1/2 Cup Mayo or Miracle whip
- 3 Slices American Cheese
- 1 Tortilla
Instructions
- Chopped the boiled egg.
- Mix the tuna, egg & mayo.
- Lay the cheese on the tortilla down the middle.
- Spread the tuna salad on top of the cheese and tortilla. Don’t go all the way to the edge on the left side. As you’re rolling it, it will move.
- Roll the tortilla up as tight as possible without squeezing it all out. Should any squeeze out while rolling it up, eat immediately.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferrably overnight. Remove from fridge and slice when ready.

I’ve never made tuna salad with egg before but I think I want to try it now 😀
Thanks for sharing! #SITSBlogging
I grew up with eggs in my tuna salad. Wasn’t till I married hubs that I found out people eat it without. I like it better, but it might be because that’s how I started. 😉
