Ingredients

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
2 cups beef broth
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon onion powder (for au jus)
1 teaspoon garlic powder (for au jus)
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Step 2: Lay the tortillas flat and evenly layer the sliced roast beef and shredded cheese down the center of each tortilla.
Step 3: Roll the tortillas tightly around the filling and place them seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet to prevent unrolling while baking.
Step 4: Brush the tops of the roll ups with melted butter, then sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, and dried parsley for extra flavor.
Step 5: Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the tortillas turn golden and the cheese inside melts completely.
Step 6: While the roll ups bake, prepare the au jus by combining beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a saucepan. Simmer over low heat for 5–7 minutes to develop the flavors.
Step 7: Remove the roll ups from the oven, slice if desired, and serve warm alongside the au jus for dipping.

Tips & Variations

For a spicy kick, add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes to the cheese before rolling the tortillas.
Use provolone for a milder flavor or mozzarella for a gooey, stretchy texture.
Try adding sautéed onions or peppers inside the roll ups for extra depth and color.
If you prefer a gluten-free option, substitute the flour tortillas with your favorite gluten-free wraps.
Leftover au jus can be refrigerated and gently reheated; it also works great as a flavorful gravy for mashed potatoes.

Storage

Store any leftover roll ups in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them in a 350°F (175°C) oven for about 10 minutes to keep the tortilla crispy and the cheese melted. Keep the au jus separately and reheat gently on the stove before serving again.

How to Serve

The image shows three rolled wraps stacked on a wooden board, each wrap filled with shredded meat, melted cheese, and green herbs, with the outer layer having a golden-brown, slightly crispy texture. The melted cheese is visible at the open ends, blending with the soft, tender meat and bright green herb bits. The wooden board holds a small white bowl of creamy white sauce in the background, and the scene sits on a white marbled surface. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I make these roll ups ahead of time?

Yes, you can assemble the roll ups and keep them covered in the refrigerator for a few hours before baking. Bake just before serving for the best texture and flavor.

What can I use if I don’t have Worcestershire sauce?

If you don’t have Worcestershire sauce, you can substitute it with soy sauce mixed with a little balsamic vinegar or a splash of steak sauce to maintain the umami flavor in the au jus.
