Ingredients

8 burrito sized flour tortillas
8 oz. cream cheese {softened}
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup cranberry sauce {I used the kind with berries}
1/2 tsp garlic salt
3 chives {chopped}-{divided}
1.5 lbs turkey lunch meat {sliced}
16 slices provolone cheese

Instructions

In a medium bowl combine your softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, cranberry sauce, garlic salt and 2 1/2 tablespoons of the chopped chives. Stir until everything is incorporated and you have a smooth mixture.
Spread 1/8 of the cranberry mixture onto each of tortillas using an offset spatula or knife. Add 5-6 slices of turkey in a line on one side of the tortilla. Top turkey with 2 slices of provolone cheese.
Starting on the side that you put the turkey and provolone, begin to roll tightly until you have a long wrap. Cover each tortilla wrap with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour and up to 3 days. {You can store them separately or place them all in a Ziploc bag to keep them in one place}.
When you are ready to cut, remove them from the refrigerator and cut each wrap in half. Cutting from the middle, cut pinwheels to about 1/2-1" from the end. The end will not be wrapped tight enough, so eat it as a taste tester or keep for a snack later.
Once your turkey pinwheels are cut into rounds, place them nicely onto a serving try. Sprinkle the remaining chopped chives over the top and serve.

Notes

To store them, wrap each rolled tortilla in plastic wrap separately. You can refrigerate them like that or add all of the wrapped tortillas to a large Ziploc bag.
