French Dip Tortilla Roll Ups Recipe

Introduction

French Dip Tortilla Roll Ups put a fun twist on the classic sandwich by combining tender roast beef, melted provolone, and crispy fried onions all wrapped in warm tortillas. Served with a savory dipping sauce, these roll ups make a tasty and satisfying appetizer or meal.

Ingredients

• 4 12-inch flour tortillas
• 4 slices Provolone cheese (about 5 ounces)
• 1/2 lb deli sliced roast beef
• 3/4 cup French fried onions
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 can (10.5 oz) beef consommé
• 3/4 cup water
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon soy sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 425ºF.
2. Step 2: Lay the tortillas flat on your work surface. Tear the provolone cheese into smaller pieces and evenly distribute over each tortilla. Layer the roast beef over the cheese, then sprinkle the French fried onions on top.
3. Step 3: Fold the sides of each tortilla inward, then roll it tightly into a log. Brush a little olive oil on the edge to help seal the roll. Place each roll seam side down on a baking sheet.
4. Step 4: Brush the tops of the roll ups with the remaining olive oil, then bake in the oven for about 10 minutes or until golden brown.
5. Step 5: While the roll ups bake, combine the beef consommé, water, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, onion powder, and garlic powder in a medium saucepan. Warm over medium heat until heated through.
6. Step 6: Remove the roll ups from the oven, slice them in half, and serve with the warm dipping sauce.

Tips & Variations

• For extra flavor, add a thin layer of horseradish sauce inside the tortillas before rolling.
• Try using cheddar cheese or Swiss for a different cheesy taste.
• You can substitute beef consommé with beef broth if preferred.

Storage

Store any leftover roll ups in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a 350ºF oven for 5-7 minutes to maintain crispness. The dipping sauce can be refrigerated separately and warmed gently on the stove before serving.

FAQs

Can I make these roll ups ahead of time?

Yes, you can assemble the roll ups and store them in the refrigerator for a few hours before baking. Just be sure to cover them well to prevent drying out.

What can I use as a dipping sauce alternative?

If you don’t have beef consommé, a rich beef broth or a homemade au jus made with beef drippings works well as a dipping sauce.

• 1/2 lb deli sliced roast beef
• 3/4 cup French fried onions
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Dipping Sauce

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425ºF to prepare for baking the roll ups.

Notes

• You can substitute Provolone with Swiss or Mozzarella cheese if preferred.
• For a spicier twist, add a dash of cayenne pepper to the dipping sauce.
• Make sure to seal the tortillas well so they don’t unroll while baking.
• French fried onions add a crunchy texture—don’t skip them!
• These roll ups are best eaten fresh but can be reheated in the oven to maintain crispiness.
