Easy Pinwheel Recipes – 13 Variations Including Pizza Roll-Ups Recipe

This easy pinwheel recipe makes many delicious variations of pinwheel sandwiches, but my favorite variation to make is pizza roll-ups! You will find 13 easy variations below. Choose the one that sounds perfect for you and feel free to modify it if you like!

Easy Pinwheel Recipes Are So Versatile!

Finger foods like these easy pinwheel recipes work perfectly for quick dinners or party food. Make these easy pizza roll-ups or try different variations of the pinwheel recipes to change things up to keep things fun and interesting.

One of the things that makes these easy pinwheel recipes amazing is that you can use leftovers inside the roll-up. For instance, I will sometimes sauté an entire container of sliced mushrooms and only use half. Or dice an onion and only use half. With this recipe, you can grab all those little baggies of sliced and diced veggies, sauté them, and put them in a pizza roll-up! When I make a big ham, I will often dice up the leftovers to use in omelets or the ham and Swiss roll-up recipe. Left-over tri-tip would work perfectly for a Philly Cheesecake variation. Using leftovers in this way will help you save money and get the most bang for your buck.

How to Make The Easy Pinwheel Recipes And Pizza Roll-Ups

The easy pinwheel recipes could not be easier. All of the variations start with an unbaked pizza crust dough. Roll the pizza dough out to form a large rectangle. Next spread the dough with pre-cooked toppings for the variation of choice. Once the pinwheel toppings are all spread evenly across the crust, you roll it up just as if it were a cinnamon roll dough. Crimp it at the ends, bake in one big piece, and slice to serve at the table.

What to Serve with Easy Pizza Roll-Ups

On the side, try the Tomato Basil Salad or a Wedge Salad with Homemade Blue Cheese Dressing. A zesty salad makes the perfect contrast.

For dessert enjoy this delicious and fast Apple Fritter Bake or Easy No-Bake Millionaire Pie.

Storing Leftovers

If you have leftovers of the pizza roll-ups recipe or other easy pinwheel recipes, you can keep individual slices in baggies to reheat later at work or at home. If you’d like to freeze a slice or two, make sure to use freezer-quality zipper bags or other airtight containers. In the refrigerator, pizza roll-ups will keep for up to three days. In the freezer, you can keep slices for up to three months.

Quick and Inexpensive Meals to Try

If you love the sound of easy pinwheel recipes but don’t have the supplies you need on hand for any of the variations, try one of these other quick meals instead. Weeknights have never been easier.

Chicken Alfredo. Your meal will be on the table in the amount of time it takes to cook diced chicken and boil pasta.
