Pepperoni Pizza Caesar Wraps (Print version)
Melty pepperoni pizza tortillas wrapped around crisp Caesar salad for a fast lunch or easy weeknight dinner.
# Ingredients:
For the pizza tortillas
01 -
4 large 10-inch flour tortillas
02 -
1/2 cup (120 ml) pizza sauce or marinara
03 -
1 1/2 cups (170 g) shredded low-moisture mozzarella
04 -
5 oz (140 g) sliced pepperoni
05 -
1 teaspoon olive oil, for brushing edges if desired
For the Caesar filling
06 -
6 cups (210 g) chopped romaine lettuce
07 -
1/3 cup (80 ml) Caesar dressing
08 -
1/3 cup (30 g) grated parmesan cheese
09 -
3/4 cup (35 g) crushed croutons
10 -
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
11 -
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
# Instructions:
01 -
Set the broiler to high and place an oven rack in the lower third of the oven. Line a large sheet pan with parchment or foil.
02 -
Place the tortillas on the pan. Spread each with 2 tablespoons sauce, leaving a small border. Top evenly with mozzarella and pepperoni.
03 -
Broil for 3-5 minutes, watching closely, until the cheese is melted and the pepperoni edges are crisp. Remove from the oven and cool for 1-2 minutes.
04 -
Combine romaine, Caesar dressing, parmesan, crushed croutons, lemon juice, and black pepper in a large bowl. Toss just until lightly coated.
05 -
Divide the Caesar salad down the center of the warm pizza tortillas. Keep the filling away from the edges so the wraps close cleanly.
06 -
Fold in the sides, roll each tortilla snugly, and slice in half. Serve right away while the cheese is warm and the lettuce is crisp.
# Good to know:
01 -
Best eaten right after rolling for the strongest contrast of warm cheese and crisp salad.
02 -
Broiler strength varies, so watch the tortillas closely after 3 minutes.
03 -
Prep the salad and toppings ahead, then broil and roll just before serving.
