Ingredients
- 2 cups pizza sauce
- 2 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded (divided)
- 3 ounces pepperoni slices
- 8 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Optional toppings: black olives, bell peppers, mushrooms, or fresh basil
Instructions
- Preheat: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Mix filling: In a bowl, combine ricotta cheese, 1 cup shredded mozzarella, Italian seasoning, and a few slices of chopped pepperoni.
- Assemble enchiladas: Spread about 2 tablespoons of pizza sauce onto each tortilla. Add a few spoonfuls of the ricotta mixture in the center, roll tightly, and place seam-side down in the baking dish.
- Top with sauce & cheese: Pour the remaining pizza sauce over the rolled tortillas. Sprinkle with the rest of the mozzarella cheese and layer pepperoni slices on top.
