Preparation

Step 1

1. Spread each tortilla with about 2 tablespoons bean dip and 2 tablespoons cheese dip. Sprinkle each with onions.
2. Tightly roll up tortillas; wrap individually in plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 1 hour but no longer than 24 hours. To serve, cut off ends from each roll and discard. Cut rolls into 1/2- to 3/4-inch slices. Secure with toothpicks if desired.

Substitution
You can use jalapeño-flavored process cheese sauce instead of the nacho cheese dip.

Success
These tasty morsels are easy to tote. You can take them to your destination before cutting, or go ahead and cut them and arrange on a platter; cover tightly with plastic wrap. Garnish just before serving.

Special Touch
Use two colors of tortillas to make the pinwheels, then arrange them on a holiday platter. Look for tomato-flavored tortillas for a red-orange color. Pierce each pinwheel with a frilly toothpick, and add some fresh cilantro sprigs to the arrangement.
