Method
- Slice the pepperoni in half, into quarters, or leave it whole. Roughly chop the flat-leaf parsley.

- Place a pan over medium-high heat and spray with oil. Add the beef mince and sear for 5 minutes or until no longer pink — season with salt and pepper.
- Add in the pepperoni, herbs, and spices and cook for 2 minutes or until the pepperoni is slightly golden.
- Add the tomato paste, crushed or diced tomatoes, and flat leaf parsley. Mix to combine, bring to a simmer, and cook for 2–3 minutes or until thick and reduced. Remove from the heat.
- Evenly distribute the beef and pepperoni mix across six wraps. Top with mozzarella cheese, and if you prefer, add a sauce of choice. Wrap tightly.
- Place on a baking tray or into an air fryer. Spray with oil and sprinkle with flat-leaf parsley (optional). If using the oven, set it to 200°C–400°F and toast for 8–10 minutes. If using an air fryer, set it to 180°C–350°F and toast for 8–10 minutes. Let cool and store in foil, food-safe paper, or airtight containers. Dig in.

Made these for Meal prep last week, and I really enjoyed them. Good flavor, and very filling. I froze them and reheated in tinfoil in the air fryer, and they reheat very well. Would highly recommend these.
Thanks for making them, Chris. Glad you enjoyed them
