Melt the Cheese In The Skillet
This had me hesitant at first, as all I could think of was a disaster of cheese burnt in my pan! But, trust me... this works wonderfully!
- Heat a large (10 to 12" diameter) skillet to a medium high heat. Add ½ cup of shredded mozzarella cheese into the hot skillet. Let it start to melt without disturbing it. No need to even add oil!
Add the Tortilla On Top Of The Melted Cheese
- Place the flour tortilla on top of the melted cheese. Press down gently so that the flour tortilla is smashed into the cheese. Keep heat on medium.
Flip The Tortilla To Brown The Other Side
- When the cheese begins to brown (1 to 2 minutes), carefully flip the tortilla by lifting the skillet up, and flipping the tortilla onto a plate, cheese side up.
- Slide the cheese covered flour tortilla back into the skillet so the uncooked side of the tortilla is on the bottom and can now be browned lightly.
Add Pizza Sauce And Pepperoni Slices
- Add pizza or marinara sauce to the middle of the tortilla, and then top with slices of pepperoni. You can also use our recipes for homemade Italian Seasoning, or Pizza Seasoning.
Roll Up Into Pizza Rolls
- Using a spatula, carefully roll the tortilla up from one side of the pan to the other.
- After repeating for the remaining flour tortillas, serve the pizza rolls extra pizza or marinara sauce for dipping.

Notes
- Wrap these pizza rolls in wax paper instead of plastic wrap, and store in a zip lock bag. This will keep them fresh, and easy to unroll after microwaving. Plastic wrap sticks together so well that it is a wrestling match getting the heated pizza rolls out after microwaving.
- Go easy on the pizza sauce, as it will make these pizza rolls soggy if you use too much. Just a teaspoon or so.
