How to Make It

Get ready to assemble these tasty roll-ups in just a few simple steps.

Prepare the Oven

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures that the pizzas will bake evenly and achieve a nice golden color.

Mix the Seasoning

Combine the garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and garlic salt in a small bowl. This mixture will enhance the flavor of your Pizza Roll Ups.

Assemble the Roll-Ups

Lay a tortilla flat and spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over it. Sprinkle a generous amount of mozzarella cheese, followed by a layer of pepperoni. Roll the tortilla tightly from the edge, ensuring the filling stays inside.

Brush with Oil

In a large baking dish, drizzle the cooking oil to coat the bottom. Arrange the rolled-up tortillas seam-side down in the dish. Brush the tops lightly with remaining oil and sprinkle the seasoning mix over them.

Bake

Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the tortillas are golden brown and the cheese has melted. Keep an eye on them to avoid burning.

How to Store It

Fridge: Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
Freezer: Yes, wraps can be frozen before baking.
Reheat: Bake at 350°F for 10 minutes or until warm.
