Ingredients
- 2 low-carb tortillas
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 12 slices pepperoni
- 1/4 cup marinara sauce
- 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Prepare the tortillas: Lay the low-carb tortillas flat on a clean surface to make rolling easier.
- Add marinara sauce: Evenly spread 1/4 cup of marinara sauce over each tortilla, ensuring a thin, even layer for flavor without sogginess.
- Layer the cheese and pepperoni: Sprinkle 1/4 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese over the marinara on each tortilla, then arrange 6 slices of pepperoni on top of the cheese.
- Season the roll-ups: Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon each of Italian seasoning and garlic powder evenly across each tortilla to elevate the flavor.
- Roll the tortillas: Carefully roll each tortilla tightly into a log shape, making sure the filling stays inside.
- Heat olive oil in a pan: Warm 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat in a non-stick skillet or frying pan.
- Cook the roll-ups: Place the rolled tortillas seam-side down in the pan. Cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and the cheese inside has melted.
- Serve: Remove from the pan, let cool slightly, slice if desired, and enjoy your cheesy, savory pepperoni pizza roll ups!
Notes
- Use low-carb tortillas to keep this snack light and suitable for low-carb diets.
- You can substitute pepperoni with other deli meats or vegetables for variety.
- For an extra crispy outside, use a little more olive oil, but be mindful of added fat content.
- Serve with extra marinara sauce for dipping if desired.
- Make sure to cook seam-side down first to seal the roll and prevent unrolling while cooking.
