real cowboys eat wraps

I had to make up for my last meal of soup chowder and bread, so I decided to knock my husband's socks off (or as Mary says, "make his socks go up and down") with some meaty cowboy pizza wraps.

These wraps are super easy and packed with flavor.

Ingredients

Makes four wraps

3 Italian sausage links, removed from casings
24 slices of pepperoni
1 cup of sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup sliced black olives
1 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1 large diced tomato
1 8 oz can of Italian style tomato paste
1 tsp dried oregano
4 large flour tortillas

In a large skillet break up and thoroughly cook the sausage. Drain. Add a bit of oil to the same pan and saute the mushrooms for a couple of minutes.

Warm the flour tortillas in the microwave. Spread about 1 tbsp of tomato paste onto each tortilla. Layer each tortilla with the pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, cheeses, olives, and tomato. Sprinkle with a pinch of the oregano. Roll up tightly and brown on each side on a lightly oiled skillet.

Serve to your hard working cowboy while it's all hot and melty and he'll forget all about that dreadful soup chowder from the night before. Guaranteed!

My hubby would say "YES" to these wraps!! He would want a bowl of chowder and then one of these wraps!! I am going to put these on this weekend's menu. I hope I can roll my as good as you roll your wraps.

I thought the chowder looked delicious! Well, he certainly can not complain about these yummy wraps.

Joanne said...

These look incredibly delicious. Those wraps are huge! At first I thought that you actually made pizza dough. Great idea to satisfy the husband.

I must confess, those look mighty tasty -- and they'd most certainly satisfy my cowboy :) Bet these make great leftovers for lunch!

Oh, this is hearty! Can cowgirls eat them, too ;)? I'm craving something hearty and comforting right now...this looks like it would hit the spot!

Kasha said...

Those wraps look amazing. I will for sure wow my husband with those. I am super impressed and jealous of your food photography. Can I trouble you for a hint or two as far as your settings? I am trying to improve my pictures and wondering if it is better to upgrade the camera or purchase photoshop. I realize the operator is also part of the problem. Either way, you are amazing. I pretty much want some of your chicken chowder now. I just got dental work done and need soup! Thanks for sharing!

I have two young men who would devour these and then ask for more! This is a great recipe for hearty eaters.

Delicious Dishings said...

Delicious! Another great wrap combo! I really need to take my queue from you and keep stuff like this on hand so I can whip up some wraps instead of turning to the takeout menus when we have no idea what to have for dinner.

The Blonde Duck said...

Can I just hire you to move in and cook for me?

Faith said...

These look soooo good and cheesy! I love your idea of browing the wraps...it really makes them look irresistible!

Lisa said...

Sounds good, looks great and you gotta love cowboys!

A Cooking Bookworm said...

You make the yummiest sounding wraps!! (And, I loved your soupchowdersoup, too!)

I love that you browned the wraps after - makes it almost a pizza chimichanga! :-)

Jen @ tatertotsandjello.com said...

Just FYI -- I am printing this off right now. I don;'t know how you do it but everything you make looks wonderful!

If I was Oprah I would hire you to be my personal chef - for $1 million dollars of course - lol.

XOXO
Jen

The sausage and pepperoni made me stop and think "yes, I definitely want one of these."

Plain Chicken said...

Holy cow - those look awesome! Pizza is my favorite food - right behind chicken. I'll be making these!

The imPerfect Housewife said...

Mmmmmm, how come my stuff never looks like yours does??? Guess what - I've got the cowboy recipe book on order from another library and it's "awaiting arrival" so I should have it anytime now!! Yeeehaw!

noble pig said...

Oh my goodness this sounds so fab, I know my family of boys would love it!!

Chef E said...

Get ready for my over used comment...'Its a Wrap', and I mean it...I will not ever want plain turkey in a tortilla ever again after this has burned into my brain!
