Pizza Wrap
Ingredients:
flour tortillas (white or wheat)
pizza sauce
low fat turkey pepperoni
lean deli turkey
lean deli ham
low fat mozzarella string cheese
fresh tomato slices
dried basil
Method:
Layer all the ingredients (or choose some of your own) in a flour tortilla:
sauce, cheese, meat, tomato, seasoning. Roll up. (You can secure with
toothpicks if you'd like.) Spray with butter flavored cooking spray and
grill on all sides in a grill pan or griddle until crispy and brown. Serve
with extra warm pizza sauce for dipping.
Step-by-Step:
To your tortilla, start by adding some pizza sauce, cut up (or shredded)
cheese, and the pepperoni. Don't go all the way to the edges.
Add the sliced tomato and basil.
Then your lean deli meats....
Starting with the sides, then the edge closest to you, roll them up.
Spray lightly with cooking spray (I used a butter flavored one) and put them
into a hot grill pan, starting with the seam side down to "seal" them.
Use something heavy (maybe even another pan) to press them down while
cooking.
Turn them over when they are wonderfully brown on the bottom. Then I held
them on the sides for a bit because I think the grill marks are so pretty on
them.
The combination of hot grill and the cooking spray make the "shell" of this
wrap wonderfully crispy. The sauce and filling is hot and best of all - the
cheese is gooey!
Serve these with some warm pizza sauce to dip them in if you'd like. And now
you don't have to be so jealous of the kids eating pizza rolls any more.
Trust me... these are BETTER!!!!
After puttering around the house and going for a nice walk, all of a sudden
it was pretty much lunchtime! It's freezing outside right now, so a cold
sandwich just wasn't going to cut it today.
I got the idea of making a grown-up pizza roll out of left over bits of
things in the fridge: left over tortillas, low fat turkey pepperoni, lean
ham and turkey from the deli, low fat mozzarella string cheese, tomatoes,
some dried basil, and of course pizza sauce that the kids were gracious
enough to leave.
Let's just say that it was FABULOUS!!! A crunchy outer shell (without
frying), lots of lean protein in there to keep me full, enough cheese and
tomatoes to make me happy, and enough sauce to feel like pizza.
