Southwest Chicken Pinwheels
Notes:
The sour cream makes these more moist than your typical pinwheel appetizer that only contains cream cheese. Therefore, I recommend preparing these 1 hour before you plan to serve them. These will not store well, so throw away any leftovers.Please check out bottom of the post (under the directions) if you’d like to see photos of the entire cooking process.
