Begin by spreading about 2 tablespoons of cream cheese evenly over each whole wheat tortilla wrap, reaching the edges to ensure they'll stick when rolled.
Place a handful of fresh baby spinach leaves over the cream cheese layer on each tortilla.
Distribute sliced olives evenly on top of the spinach leaves across all tortillas.
Lay 2-3 slices of deli turkey breast over the spinach and olives on each wrap.
Sprinkle roughly 2 tablespoons of feta cheese crumbles over the turkey.
Add a layer of chopped sun-dried tomatoes and then add a few slices of red bell pepper on each tortilla for a fresh crunch.
Sprinkle a little lemon zest over the top of all fillings, along with a pinch of salt and ground black pepper.
Starting from one end, tightly roll up each tortilla into a wrap, making sure all the ingredients are snug inside.
Wrap each roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up and hold together better when cut.
After chilling, remove the plastic wrap and slice each roll into 1-inch pinwheels using a sharp knife.
Arrange on a serving platter and enjoy your Mediterranean Diet Savory Turkey and Cheese Pinwheels.
