  3. Step 3: Roll the tortillas tightly from one end, folding in the sides to keep the filling secure.
  4. Step 4: Brush the melted butter over the tops of the roll ups, then sprinkle garlic powder, onion powder, and dried parsley evenly over them.

Tips & Variations

  • Use provolone for a milder flavor or mozzarella for a gooey texture.
  • For extra flavor, add caramelized onions or sautéed mushrooms inside the roll ups.
  • Try using whole wheat or spinach tortillas for a nutritious twist.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley for a bright finish and added color.

Storage

Store any leftover roll ups in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 8-10 minutes to retain crispness. Keep the au jus in a separate container and warm gently on the stove before serving.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Roll Ups

  • 12 oz Roast Beef (Deli-style or leftover roast)
  • 8 oz Mozzarella or Provolone cheese, shredded
  • 4 pcs Flour Tortillas (soft yet sturdy)
  • 2 tablespoons Melted Butter (for brushing)
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 1 tablespoon Dried Parsley (for garnish)

For the Au Jus

  • 2 cups Beef Broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Soy Sauce
  • To taste Salt & Pepper (for seasoning)
  • Optional: Additional garlic powder and onion powder for au jus seasoning

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.
  2. Assemble Roll Ups: Lay the flour tortillas flat on a clean surface. Distribute slices of roast beef evenly down the center of each tortilla, then sprinkle the shredded mozzarella or provolone cheese over the beef.
  3. Roll and Secure: Roll each tortilla tightly from one end, folding in the sides as you roll to securely enclose the filling and prevent it from spilling out during baking.
  4. Prepare for Baking: Place the rolled tortillas seam side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops generously with melted butter and then sprinkle evenly with garlic powder, onion powder, and dried parsley for flavor and color.
  5. Bake: Bake the prepared roll ups in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tortillas turn golden brown and the cheese inside melts beautifully.
  6. Make Au Jus: While the roll ups bake, combine beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a saucepan. Optionally, add a small dash of garlic powder and onion powder for extra flavor. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat and let it cook gently for 5-7 minutes to meld the flavors.
  7. Serve: Remove the roll ups from the oven and slice them into bite-sized pieces. Serve warm with the hot au jus on the side for dipping, enhancing the savory experience.

Notes

  • Optional: Garnish with fresh parsley for an extra pop of color and freshness.
  • For a crispier texture, brush an additional layer of melted butter halfway through baking.
  • Leftover roll ups can be stored in an airtight container and reheated in the oven to retain crispiness.
  • Use low-sodium beef broth and soy sauce to reduce sodium content if desired.
