Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 4 whole wheat tortillas
  • 1/2 cup low-fat mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1/4 cup no-sugar-added tomato sauce
  • 12 slices turkey pepperoni
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Olive oil spray, as needed

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Start by gathering all the ingredients. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lay out the whole wheat tortillas on a clean surface, and have your low-fat mozzarella, tomato sauce, turkey pepperoni, and seasoning ready for assembly.
  2. Assemble the Rolls: Spread a thin, even layer of tomato sauce over each tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges. Next, sprinkle the Italian seasoning evenly to enhance flavor. Add a layer of turkey pepperoni slices, and top generously with shredded mozzarella cheese.
  3. Roll Them Up: Starting from one edge, carefully roll the tortilla tightly but without squeezing out the filling. Make sure the seam is tucked underneath to keep your pizza rolls sealed during baking.
  4. Slice and Arrange: Using a sharp knife, slice the rolled tortillas into 1.5 to 2-inch pieces to create individual pizza rolls. Place them on a lined baking sheet with the cut side facing up, giving them enough space to crisp up on all sides.
  5. Bake Until Golden: Lightly spray the top of the pizza rolls with olive oil spray to help them crisp beautifully. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the cheese inside is bubbly and melted.

Notes

  • Use whole wheat tortillas to add fiber without sacrificing flavor or texture.
  • Don’t overload the filling; a thin layer helps the rolls bake evenly without sogginess.
  • Seal edges carefully by tucking the seam underneath to prevent unraveling during baking.
  • Opt for part-skim mozzarella to keep the rolls cheesy but lower in calories.
  • Keep an eye on baking time to avoid drying out the rolls; look for golden edges.
