Ingredients

Scale

Roll Ups

  • 1 lb thinly sliced roast beef (deli style or leftover)
  • 1½ cups shredded mozzarella or provolone cheese
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley

Au Jus

  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare Oven and Baking Sheet: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and facilitate easy cleanup.
  2. Assemble Roll Ups: Lay each tortilla flat on a surface, then evenly layer thinly sliced roast beef and shredded mozzarella or provolone cheese down the center of each tortilla.
  3. Roll and Place: Roll the tortillas tightly around the filling and place each roll seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet to keep them intact while baking.
  4. Brush and Season: Using a pastry brush, coat the tops of the roll ups with melted butter, then sprinkle evenly with garlic powder, onion powder, and dried parsley for added flavor and a golden crust.
  5. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the roll ups for 12–15 minutes or until the tortillas turn golden brown and the cheese inside is melted and bubbly.
  6. Make Au Jus: Meanwhile, in a saucepan, combine beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, and season with salt and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat and cook for 5–7 minutes to develop a rich dipping sauce.
  7. Serve: Remove the roll ups from the oven, slice into bite-sized pieces if desired, and serve warm alongside the au jus for dipping, enhancing the juicy flavors of the roast beef.

Notes

  • Use low-carb tortillas or lettuce wraps to create a lighter version of this dish.
  • For a spicier twist, add sliced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce inside the wraps before rolling.
  • Parchment paper helps prevent the roll ups from sticking to the baking sheet and makes cleanup easier.
  • Choosing provolone cheese offers a classic flavor, while mozzarella provides a gooier, stretchier melt.
