Turkey Sandwich Rolls


I don't really have a recipe for these. I just kinda made it up by looking at the store bought ones. But I make them for Jason for lunch all the time and we both love them. I even brought them to a baby shower once and they were a huge hit. So here are the directions:

Ingredients:
Turkey sandwich meat (or any other kind of sandwich meat)
Sliced or shredded cheese, any flavor
Spinach leaves (lettuce can be substituted, but it doesn't roll as nicely)
Thinly sliced tomatoes
Mayonnaise
Mustard or Salad dressing (I like Ranch or Caesar)
Tortillas (white taste better than wheat, but I've used both)
Tooth picks

1. Spread out desired number of tortillas. Each tortilla makes three sandwich rolls. Spread thin layer of mayonnaise. Add mustard or salad dressing, mixing it with the mayonnaise.
2. Lay out slices of sandwich meat to cover the entire tortilla.
3. Spread shredded cheese over the top. If using sliced cheese, tear in half and make a line across the center of the tortilla, using about 2 halves (sometimes 3 if the tortillas are especially large).
4. Line tomato slices up next to the cheese slices.
5. Evenly spread the spinach leaves over the tortilla.
6. Roll the tortilla tightly, in the opposite direction of the cheese and tomato rows.
7. Insert three toothpicks: one about an inch from each edge and one in the center to hold the roll in place.
8. Cut the turkey roll between the toothpicks.
9. Enjoy!

I have tried several varietes. One combo is mayo/mustard with turkey and cheddar. Another uses Ranch dressing, provolone cheese and turkey. A Caesar variety uses Caesar dressing, shredded Parmesan cheese and turkey.
And make sure to remove the toothpicks before eating!
