Cheesy Hummus Tempeh Pinwheels

The main trick to making perfect pinwheels is to roll tightly as the hummus will act like a glue. Also, finely dice those tomatoes. I deseeded mine too so the water from the tomatoes wouldn’t sog up the wheels. Serrated knives are a must and gently cut those rolls. It’s an art. These cute cheesy pinwheels make perfect appetizers, snacks, or a fun treat for your child's lunch box!
