Ingredients
  

Tortillas and Fillings
  • 6 pieces high-protein tortillas or wraps 10-inch size, with 10g+ protein per wrap
  • 1 cup lean ground turkey or chicken cooked and seasoned, fat drained
  • ½ cup reduced-fat mozzarella cheese shredded
  • ¼ cup turkey pepperoni slices chopped into small pieces
  • ⅓ cup marinara sauce no sugar added
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • olive oil spray or 1 egg beaten, for brushing
  • optional chili flakes, fresh basil, or 2 tbsp cottage cheese for extra creaminess and protein

Equipment

  • Skillet
  • Mixing bowl
  • Parchment-Lined Baking Tray
  • Air Fryer

Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the ground turkey for 6-8 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula until no pink remains. Add garlic powder and oregano during the last minute of cooking. Drain any excess fat thoroughly using paper towels.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked turkey, mozzarella cheese, chopped pepperoni, and marinara sauce. Mix until evenly distributed.
  3. Lay one tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spoon about ⅓ cup of filling into the center, keeping it in a horizontal line. Fold the left and right sides inward (about 1 inch each), then roll tightly from the bottom edge toward the top, keeping the filling centered like a burrito. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
  4. Brush each roll lightly with beaten egg or spray with olive oil for crispy exterior.
  5. For air fryer: Preheat to 375°F and cook rolls for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden brown. For oven: Preheat to 400°F, place rolls seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking tray, and bake for 12-15 minutes until crispy and golden.
  6. Let cool for 2-3 minutes before serving. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
