Lunch Pinwheel Sandwiches














1 Flour Tortilla
2 Lettuce Leafs
2 pieces of whatever lunch meat you desire (ham, turkey, etc.)
1 sliced tomato
Mayo if desired
Mustard if desired

Place the tortilla on the counter.  Then pull your chosen lunch meat and place once slice on each side overlaying each over about half way over the tortilla.  Then once you have that in place, spread mayo over the tortilla and lunch meat, and then spread the mustard as well.  Place 4 thinly sliced tomatoes vertically across in middle of the sandwich.  Then place the lettuce leaves across horizontally on top of the tomatoes.  Then once you have all that completed, slowly roll up the tortilla with the items in it, into a tight burrito shape.  Then once you have that shape, cut the  tortilla sandwich in small slices, and you have your "Lunch Pinwheel Sandwiches".
