Cheesy Ham Roll Ups

I made these Cheesy Ham Roll Ups for dinner the other night and they were great! I was getting tired of bread and rolls, so the flour tortillas were a nice change.


2 1/2 tbs. olive oil
6 flour tortillas
Paramesan cheese
1/2 lb. thinly sliced deli ham
1/4 lb. thinly sliced provolone cheese
1 red pepper, diced
1/4 tsp. cilantro
Shredded mozarella cheese
Marinara sauce, optional

Brush 1 1/2 tbs. of olive oil on one side of tortillas. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese, as desired. Layer tortillas with 2 slices of ham, 1 slice provolone cheese, handful red peppers. Sprinkle with mozarella cheese, as desired, and cilantro. Roll up tortillas and place seam side down on a baking sheet sprayed with non stick cooking spray. Brush tortillas with remaining olive oil. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese, as desired. Bake at 425 for 9 - 12 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with marinara sauce if desired.

I baked these in the toaster oven at 425 for about 5 minutes. If you use the toaster oven, keep a close eye on them as they brown quickly.

Health Benefits:
The deli ham provides protein, sodium too though.
Cheeses provide protein and calcium.
Red pepper contains lycopene which helps lower the risk of cancer. They are also a good source of fiber, Vitamins B6, A, C and folic acid.
Cilantro has many health benefits such as lowering blood sugar and cholesterol.
