Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and crumbled feta cheese. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  2. Add dried cranberries, parsley, honey, and black pepper. Stir until combined to create the filling.
  3. Spread the cream cheese and feta mixture evenly over a flour tortilla, leaving a half-inch border.
  4. Optionally, sprinkle fresh spinach or chopped nuts over the mixture.
  5. Roll the tortilla tightly from one side to the other, pressing gently to keep the filling inside.
  6. Wrap the rolled tortilla in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  7. Slice the chilled pinwheel into bite-sized pieces and arrange on a platter for serving.
