  2. Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise across the whole wrap. This helps everything stick together.
  3. Add your fillings: Place your polony evenly across the wrap, add cheese on top, add lettuce leaves. Don't overfill, or it will be hard to roll.
  4. Starting from one side, roll the wrap as tightly as you can into a long tube.
  5. Use a sharp knife to cut the roll into small round pieces (about 2–3 cm thick).
  6. Place the pinwheels into the lunchbox. You can secure them with toothpicks if needed (for older kids).
