    This sounds really good. I think I will make some up using cinnomom and splenda to the light cream cheese and spread on the flour tortillas and pop in the microwave or oven to make a low cal cinnomon bun. Thanks for the basic idea. - 2/8/09

    I make this for every party and my friends have begun asking if the pinwheels will be served! My future-mother-in-law uses olives and chiles in hers (if you're into spicy). - 6/13/08

    I used La Tortilla low carb tortilla (50 cals), Laughing Cow light (35 cals) and pace salsa (20 cals). This is the perfect little snack in between meals, and easy to make for 1 person! - 1/25/10

    Very good as listed. Second batch I substituted raspberry chipolte for salsa. Added approx. 35 calories, subtract approx. 20g sodium. - 6/29/08

    Make these often. Use whole wheat tortillas to raise the fiber count. The flavored tortillas and flavored salsas make a nice change of pace. - 6/10/08
