Ingredients
Scale
Roll Ups
- 1 lb thinly sliced roast beef (deli-style or leftover)
- 1.5 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 Dipping Sauce
- 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
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Assemble the Roll Ups: Lay each flour tortilla flat on your work surface. Distribute the thinly sliced roast beef evenly in the center of each tortilla, then sprinkle the shredded mozzarella or provolone cheese on top of the beef.
- Roll and Secure: Roll each tortilla tightly around the filling, folding in the sides to keep the filling inside. Place each rolled tortilla seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet to hold their shape during baking.
- Season and Butter: Brush the tops of the roll ups with melted butter to help them brown beautifully. Sprinkle garlic powder, onion powder, and dried parsley evenly over the tops for extra flavor and aroma.
- Bake: Bake the prepared roll ups in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes until they turn golden brown and the cheese inside is melted and gooey.
- Prepare the Au Jus: While the roll ups bake, combine beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook for 5 to 7 minutes to develop rich, savory flavors.
- Serve: Remove the roll ups from the oven and slice them into bite-sized pieces. Serve warm alongside the au jus dipping sauce for dunking and enjoy the comforting, flavorful bites.
Notes
- Use thinly sliced deli-style roast beef for best texture and quick assembly.
- Provolone cheese offers a mild flavor, while mozzarella provides gooey meltiness; choose based on preference.
- Adjust seasoning in the au jus to taste; some prefer adding a splash of red wine for extra depth.
- Leftover roll ups can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated in the oven or air fryer for crispy texture.
- For a gluten-free version, substitute flour tortillas with gluten-free tortillas.
