A rustic presentation of Christmas tree roll-ups, elegantly arranged on a wooden table. These festive pinwheels are made with spinach tortillas, filled with a creamy cheese spread, diced red bell peppers, and finely chopped herbs, then rolled and sliced into spirals. The roll-ups are stacked in the shape of a Christmas tree and garnished with fresh rosemary sprigs and pomegranate seeds for a festive touch. A small star-shaped cheese slice tops the tree. Scattered around are holiday-themed decorations like pinecones and cranberries. Soft natural lighting enhances the warm and festive feel, with gentle shadows and a hint of rustic holiday charm in the background.
