Recipe instructions Pesto Mozzarella Roll Ups
-
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Stack the tortillas on a plate and cover them with a damp paper towel. Microwave for 30 seconds to soften them.
-
Step 2
Cut the string cheese in half lengthwise. Spread half a tablespoon of pesto over the lower half of each tortilla, being careful to stay away from the edges. Place one piece of mozzarella on top of each tortilla.
-
Step 3
Roll the tortilla's sides inwards so they cover the cheese, then start rolling the tortilla upwards from the bottom.
-
Step 4
Put the rolled tortillas on a baking sheet lined with parchment, ensuring that the seam side is down. Brush the tortillas lightly with oil.
-
Step 5
Bake them in a preheated oven for around 13 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the cheese has melted.
-
Step 6
While the roll ups are baking, make the creamy tomato dip. Mix the mayonnaise, tomato paste, and minced garlic.
-
Step 7
Allow the roll ups to cool slightly, then serve with the creamy tomato dip.
