Main Ingredients
- 20 small tortillas (about 5-inches wide)
- 14 oz pizza sauce
- 24 oz shredded mozzarella cheese
- 80 slices pepperoni
- 1 tbsp cooking oil
Garlic Herb Topping
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1/2 tsp garlic salt
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly spray a large baking pan with non-stick spray or oil and set aside to prepare for the roll ups.
- Assemble the Roll Ups: Lay out each small tortilla and spread 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce evenly over it. Sprinkle approximately 1/4 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese on top, then arrange 4 slices of pepperoni evenly over the cheese.
- Roll the Tortillas: Roll each tortilla tightly from one edge to the other to form a compact roll, ensuring the fillings stay inside during baking.
- Arrange and Oil: Place the rolled tortillas seam side down in the prepared baking pan. Brush the tops of each roll up with the tablespoon of cooking oil to help them brown evenly.
- Prepare the Herb Topping: In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and garlic salt. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the tops of the roll ups for a burst of savory flavor.
- Bake: Bake the roll ups in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until the cheese inside melts fully and the tops are lightly golden and aromatic.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. These roll ups are great warm as a party appetizer, snack, or quick meal.
Notes
- For a vegetarian version, omit the pepperoni or replace with sliced vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms.
- Use whole wheat tortillas for added fiber and nutrition.
- These roll ups can be made ahead and refrigerated before baking; just add a couple of extra minutes to the baking time if chilled.
- Adjust the amount of garlic salt according to your taste and dietary sodium needs.
- Serve with extra pizza sauce or ranch dip for added flavor.
