I successfully made the Tortilla pinwheels, thanks to answers here: now I am wondering how long they will stay fresh in the fridge?
I mixed cream cheese with salsa and chopped green onions, spread on Tortillas then put slices of ham or beef on.
Rolled them up and covered each one with saran wrap, ready to slice into "pinwheels" when I need them - but now I am wondering how long they stay fresh?
Thanks

As long as their ingredients still have some "fridge-life" left and the spread-on wasn't overly gooey [as in it could soak into the tortilla too much] you should have a few days grace. Go with your ingredients as to length...ham, beef and cheese would last longer than chicken or turkey, right? If you put shredded lettuce or alfalfa sprouts, then all bets are off - they wilt down into yuck in a day. Green onions wilt too, but are still tasty with some crunch left in the white parts. Pinwheels get kind of 'gummy' if the spread soaks in too much, but that's a matter of esthetics rather than food safety.

Your pinwheels will stay fresh for a few days. Even though you have wrapped them in Saran Wrap the salsa will eventually seep through the Tortilla Wrap and make it soggy.

Yummy. Sounds sooo good! I would share my goodies with someone while the ingredients are fresh and hopefully be able to consume all. Don't take chances by keeping them in the frig for more than a day or two. The ingredients tend to have a lifespan of just that.

I would think several days at least. It depends on what the 'stale date' on your cream cheese and meat is/was.
