Avocado Turkey Pinwheels with cilantro and chive are perfect for any party!
I think I told you already I am crazy about cilantro. I add it to my salads, to my dips, sandwiches, casseroles and everywhere where I can. What can I say… It is my favorite. I like dill also and you can find it my my kitchen today. These two herbs are the best and I love to cook with them.
I want to provide more party food ideas here on the blog so you can easily find in one place … here on Ilona’s Passion blog. More recipes will be coming here but in the meantime you can check Sweet Party Food Ideas and Savory Party Food Ideas.
I made these turkey pinwheels few days ago and as always I couldn’t stop eating them. Whenever, I make something with cilantro and avocado I have to eat it right away. These turkey pinwheels are packed with so many flavors including chive as well. The tricky part about them is to cut them neatly. You need to have a really sharp knife and don’t spread to much avocado/cilantro on each tortilla.
When you”ll make them you’ll see how delicious they are. Prepare them for your next party and everyone will like them. They are very easy to make. Only blend avocado, cilantro and chive. Season with salt and pepper. Spread on tortilla, place turkey slices and a new tasty appetizer is made. You can also have it for lunch.

What a great and easy party idea! I love cilantro too, but I live with cilantro abstainers. (They have the soap gene.) So enjoy the cilantro for me! I think parsley would be a nice substitute.
Ilona
Thank you!

I’m with you – I’ll put cilantro on anything! I genuinely feel bad for people who get a soapy taste when they eat it because they’re so missing out! Love these little pin wheels – I’d happily make a ton and just eat them for lunch!
Ilona
Thank you Sarah. I am happy that I am not the only one who loves cilantro:))))

I love love LOVE cilantro!!! I am so glad to find somebody that loves it as much as I do. Cilantro is like my food crack. I can’t get enough of it. I live in South Florida, and if I can’t find it at my local produce stores I will search high and low for fresh cilantro. Looking for more any cilantro inspired recipes that you have. With much thanks, Melissa
