In a small bowl, combine the cream cheese and fined chopped sun-dried tomatoes. Mix until smooth.
Divide the cream cheese mixture equally between the flour tortilla. Spread out evenly.
Next, make the avocado mayo. In a small bowl, combine the smashed avocado, mayonnaise, scallion, lime zest, and lime juice. Mix until evenly combined.
Divide the avocado mayonnaise equally between the flour tortillas. Spread out evenly on top of the cream cheese mixture.
Next, add a layer of chopped romaine lettuce. Top with the chopped bacon and chopped Roma tomatoes.
Roll up tightly.
Using a serrated knife, slice into one-inch pieces and arrange on a platter for serving. (The end pieces can be discarded or enjoyed as a snack.)
Serve immediately.
Notes
While some pinwheels can be made hours (or even a day) in advance, these BLT pinwheels are best served and enjoyed within an hour of making.
Use good quality bacon that is crispy and not too fatty. This will add a delicious crunch to your pinwheels. And don't be afraid to go heavy on the bacon - it's one of the stars of this dish!
Make sure your lettuce is thoroughly dry before adding it to the tortillas. Wet lettuce can cause the pinwheels to become soggy and lose their shape.
Lastly, when rolling the tortillas, make sure to roll them tightly to avoid any gaps or air pockets. This will ensure they stay together when sliced and served.
