Can you make pinwheels ahead of time? Yes—tortilla pinwheels are a perfect make-ahead potluck recipe. In fact, you should assemble and roll the pinwheels at least a few hours ahead for best results. However, make them only 24 hours ahead at most to ensure the tortillas do not become soggy.

Airtight food storage containers are the ideal option, as they prevent air and moisture from seeping in and causing the wrap to become soggy or stale. Reusable food containers are also a great choice, as they are eco-friendly and can be used again and again to store wraps and other types of food.

The best way to make sure your pinwheel sandwiches do not get soggy is to create a barrier between any wet ingredients in the sandwiches and the tortilla.
