Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup pizza sauce

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Tortillas: Lay the tortillas flat on a clean surface, ready for filling. Make sure they are at room temperature to prevent cracking when rolling.
  2. Add the Filling: Spread about 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce evenly over each tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges to seal properly. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce on each tortilla.
  3. Roll the Tortillas: Carefully roll each tortilla tightly from one end to the other to form a cylinder shape, ensuring the filling stays inside.
  4. Slice the Rolls: Using a sharp knife, slice each rolled tortilla into 1 to 1.5-inch wide pieces to create bite-sized pizza rolls.
  5. Bake the Pizza Rolls: Place the sliced rolls cut-side up on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 12 to 15 minutes or until the tortillas are golden and crisp and the cheese is melted.
  6. Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let the pizza rolls cool for a few minutes before serving to allow the cheese to set and to avoid burns.

Notes

  • Use whole wheat or low-carb tortillas for an even healthier option.
  • Feel free to add extra fillings like sliced pepperoni, vegetables, or herbs for more flavor.
  • For a crispier finish, broil for the last 1-2 minutes but watch closely to prevent burning.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat in the oven for best texture.
