Ingredients (Makes about 6 wraps):

- ยฝ cup pizza sauce (or more if you like extra sauce)
- 1 tbsp olive oil (for brushing)

- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (low-fat version for less fat)
Instructions:
-
Preheat and Prepare:
Preheat your oven to 375ยฐF (190ยฐC). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease with cooking spray. -
Prepare the Wraps:
Lay each tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over the center of each tortilla, leaving the edges free. -
Assemble the Wrap:
- Place one string cheese in the center of each tortilla.
- Add 1 slice of pepperoni or turkey pepperoni, then sprinkle with shredded chicken breast and a small handful of shredded mozzarella cheese.
- For an extra boost of flavor, sprinkle a pinch of Italian seasoning and fresh basil if desired.
-
Roll the Wraps:
Gently fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll it up tightly, ensuring the filling stays inside. -
Bake:
Place each rolled wrap seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops lightly with olive oil to ensure they get crispy while baking. -
Baking Time:
Bake the wraps in the oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the tortillas are golden and the cheese is melted. If you want a crispy top, broil for an additional 1-2 minutes. -
Serve and Enjoy:
Let the pizza wraps cool for a few minutes before serving. Pair with extra pizza sauce for dipping and enjoy your high-protein pizza wrap!
