How to Make Easy Baked Pizza Burritos

1. Cook the sausage

Cook Italian sausage in a skillet until browned and fully cooked, crumbling it into small bits.

2. Warm the tortillas

Microwave 1–2 tortillas at a time for 20–30 seconds to make them easier to fold.

3. Assemble the burritos

Layer each tortilla with:

• 2 tbsp marinara sauce
• 6 slices pepperoni
• 2 tbsp cooked brown rice
• 2 tbsp Italian sausage
• A few mushroom slices
• A handful of spinach
• 2 tbsp mozzarella cheese

These are approximate amounts—adjust based on your preferences.

4. Roll and place in a baking dish

Roll up each tortilla tightly like a burrito and place it seam-side down in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.

5. Brush and sprinkle

Mix melted butter, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder. Brush over the tops of the burritos. Sprinkle generously with Parmesan.

6. Bake

Bake at 350°F for 15–20 minutes, until golden and crispy on top.

Serve warm and watch them disappear!
