Storage

FAQs

Can I freeze pizza roll ups?

Yes, you can freeze them before baking. Wrap each roll individually and place them in a freezer-safe container. Bake from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the baking time.

Can I use other types of cheese?

Absolutely! Mozzarella works best for meltiness, but you can mix in cheddar, provolone, or your favorite cheeses for different flavors.

Main Ingredients

• 20 small flour tortillas (5-inch)
• 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

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly spray a large baking pan with cooking oil to prevent the roll ups from sticking.
2. Prepare Tortillas: Spread 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce evenly over each small flour tortilla. Then sprinkle 1/4 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese on top, followed by 4-5 slices of pepperoni.
3. Roll Up Tortillas: Roll each tortilla tightly to enclose the filling, and place them seam side down on the prepared baking pan to keep them sealed during baking.
4. Brush with Oil: Brush the tops of the rolled tortillas with the cooking oil to help them brown and crisp in the oven.
5. Apply Garlic Herb Topping: In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and garlic salt. Sprinkle this seasoning blend evenly over the tops of the roll ups to add savory flavor.
6. Bake: Bake the roll ups in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the bottoms are lightly browned and crispy.
7. Serve: Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving warm as a tasty snack or appetizer.

Notes

• You can customize the fillings by adding vegetables like bell peppers or olives if desired.
• For extra crispiness, you may broil the roll ups for 1-2 minutes after baking, watching carefully to prevent burning.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheat in the oven for best texture.
• Use whole wheat tortillas for a healthier option.
