Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Spice Mix: In a small bowl, combine the onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and dried oregano. Mix thoroughly to create a vibrant seasoning blend.
  2. Brown the Beef: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat it with olive oil spray. Add the lean ground beef, cooking for about 5 minutes until browned.
  3. Add Pepperoni and Spices: Stir in the chopped pepperoni and spice mix. Continue cooking for another 2 minutes.
  4. Incorporate Tomatoes: Add crushed tomatoes and tomato paste, stirring into the beef mixture. Let simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  5. Assemble the Rolls: Take a tortilla, distribute the meat filling and sprinkle mozzarella cheese. Roll tightly, tucking the sides.
  6. Bake or Air Fry: Preheat oven to 400°F. Place rolls seam-side down on parchment-lined tray. Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden.
  7. Serve: Let rolls cool, slice in half, and serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

Drain excess moisture from the beef mixture to keep rolls crispy. Avoid overfilling wraps and let the meat cool slightly before assembly for easier rolling.
