Step-by-Step Instructions for Crack Chicken Pinwheels
  1. Step 1: Prepare the Chicken. Shred your cooked chicken if it’s not already shredded.
  2. Step 2: Mix the Ingredients. Combine the shredded chicken, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, ranch seasoning, crumbled bacon, and green onions.
  3. Step 3: Spread the Mixture. Lay out a tortilla and place a generous amount of the chicken filling in the center.
