Over the last few years, wraps have become very popular. The lowly tortilla from Mexico has been re-purposed in many different ways.
Asiago Pinwheels are a hearty and tasty appetizer, made with soft tortillas, fresh basil and asiago and fontina cheeses. They fill the mouth with an amazing bouquet of flavour.
Enjoy!
