Chef's Note

For an extra crispy exterior, you can broil the roll-ups for the last minute of cooking, but watch them carefully to prevent burning. These roll-ups can be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated until ready to bake, making them perfect for busy weeknights or after-school snacks.

Ingredients

  • 4 oz sliced pepperoni

  • 10 slices provolone cheese slices

  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese

  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning

  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes

  • 1 cup marinara sauce

  • 2 tbsp fresh basil

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 clove garlic clove

Instructions
  • 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • 2

    In a small bowl, mix 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese with 1 tsp of Italian seasoning, 1/2 tsp of garlic powder, and 1/4 tsp of red pepper flakes.

  • 3

    Lay out the 10 provolone cheese slices on a clean work surface.

  • 4

    Divide the seasoned mozzarella mixture evenly among the provolone slices, placing it in the center of each slice.

  • 5

    Place 3-4 pepperoni slices on top of the mozzarella mixture on each provolone slice.

  • 6

    Carefully roll up each provolone slice, tucking in the sides as you go to prevent the filling from spilling out.

  • 7

    Place the roll-ups seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet and brush lightly with 1 tbsp of olive oil.

  • 8

    Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the edges are golden brown.

  • 9

    While the roll-ups are baking, prepare the marinara dip by heating 1 cup of marinara sauce in a small saucepan over medium heat.

  • 10

    Mince 1 garlic clove and add it to the marinara sauce, along with 1 tbsp of chopped fresh basil. Simmer for 5 minutes.

  • 11

    Remove the roll-ups from the oven and let cool for 2 minutes before serving.

  • 12

    Transfer the warm marinara dip to a serving bowl and garnish with the remaining 1 tbsp of fresh basil.

  • 13

    Serve the pepperoni and cheese roll-ups with the marinara dip on the side.
