Ingredients - Here's What You'll Need
This recipe uses a handful of simple ingredients.

- The pizza sauce: I used store-bought pizza sauce in this delicious wrap. You could also use homemade pizza sauce or marinara sauce.
- The meat filling: I used a combination of cooked and drained Italian sausage and mini pepperonis. I could have also used turkey pepperoni or regular pepperoni slices.
- The cheese: I used shredded mozzarella cheese. Sometimes, I'll add some freshly grated parmesan cheese for added flavor.
Steps To Building This Delicious Pizza Wrap
- Once I had assembled the ingredients, I started by making a single cut from the center of the flour tortilla to one edge.
- Then, I spread the pizza sauce on the flour tortilla, leaving about an inch from the edges.
- After that, I placed the Italian sausage on the first quadrant of the tortilla to the right of the slice.
- Next, I placed the shredded mozzarella cheese on the second and third quadrants of the tortilla.
- Finally, I added the mini pepperoni to the fourth quadrant.
- I folded the sausage quadrant over the mozzarella cheese and the pepperoni quadrant over the mozzarella cheese. Then, I folded the pizza wrap in half.
Cooking the Pizza Wrap
After I folded the pizza wrap, I added it to a skillet that I had brushed with olive oil. I cooked the pizza wrap over medium heat for about three minutes until it was golden brown on one side.
I turned the pizza wrap and cooked the other side for another three minutes.
I transferred the cooked pizza wrap to a cutting board and cut it in half.
I served the pizza wrap with a light salad and extra pizza sauce on the side.
The Sausage and Pepperoni Pizza Wrap was perfectly cooked with its golden brown exterior and the melted cheese inside.
So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, try making this amazing sausage and pepperoni pizza wrap using a flour tortilla. You won't be disappointed! Yum!
Frequently Asked Questions
Feel free to use store-bought pre-shredded cheese in this recipe or shred your own. Either works well.
You can use either sweet or mild Italian sausage in this recipe. You can also use hot Italian sausage. It's a matter of preference.

Recipe Tips and Tricks
- I've experimented a lot with the best way to add the ingredients to the tortilla, and what I described above tends to be the best way. The main reason is that the cheese layers are on the outside of the wrap. This is the best way to ensure melty cheese in the wrap.
- I wanted to ensure that I started in the center when I made the single cut in the tortilla. To do this, I folded the tortilla in half and then in half again. Then, I pinched the point to mark the center.
- I generally prefer to shred my own cheese instead of pre-shredded cheese. However, in this recipe, either type of shredded cheese will work.
