http://www.marksdailyapple.com/

Searching for a good keto sandwich option, no bread required? Well look no further than these low-carb, grain-free meat and cheese roll-ups. Who needs bread or a tortilla when you have all this deliciousness? After all, the best part of sandwiches isn’t the bread. It’s what’s inside that really matters.

And these keto roll-ups aren’t your average lettuce wrap! Nope, these feature crispy cheese on the outside with savory fillings, perfectly paired with some of our favorite dipping sauces. Enjoy them warm for an easy work-from-home lunch or after-school snack. Chilled, they’re great for lunchboxes or hitting the trail. A sandwich roll-up is a nice break from trail mix when you’re on a long hike. Throw them in an insulated lunch bag with a lightweight ice pack, and you’re good to go.

This recipe suggests making them in an oven, but a toaster oven will also work. Use the ideas below as inspiration to come up with your own meat, cheese, and sauce creations!

Keto Sandwich Roll-ups with Dipping Sauce Recipes

Makes: 3 roll-ups for each recipe variation (1 serving)

Time in the kitchen: 10 – 12 minutes

Italian Cheese Roll-ups

Ingredients

• 3 slices mozzarella cheese
• 6 slices pepperoni or salami
• 3 fresh basil leaves
• Italian seasoning
• Primal Kitchen Tomato Basil Marinara Sauce for dipping

Directions

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.

Arrange your slices of cheese on the pan. Layer the pepperoni or salami along the center of the cheese with a leaf or two of basil and sprinkle it with Italian seasoning. Place the sheet pan in the oven for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the cheese starts to crisp on the outside edges.

Remove from the oven and quickly and carefully roll the cheese up diagonally until each one is in a cylinder rolled-up shape. Use a spatula to prevent burning your fingers.

Once the cheese slightly cools, slice in half and sprinkle with more Italian seasoning, then dip into your favorite Primal Kitchen marinara sauce!

Buffalo Chicken Cheese Roll-ups

Ingredients

• 3 slices cheddar cheese
• 2 oz. cooked shredded chicken breast
• 1 stalk celery, finely chopped
• 1½ tablespoons Primal Kitchen Ranch Dressing
• Primal Kitchen Jalapeño Buffalo or Buffalo Sauce to taste, plus extra for dipping
• Sliced green onion for garnish

Directions

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.

Arrange your slices of cheese on the pan. In a small bowl, mix together the chicken breast, celery, Ranch Dressing, and Buffalo Sauce to taste. Place a dollop of the chicken mixture in the center of each piece of cheese.

Place the sheet pan in the oven for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the cheese starts to get crispy on the outer edges. Remove from the oven and quickly and carefully roll the cheese up diagonally until each one is in a cylinder rolled-up shape. Use a spatula to prevent burning your fingers.

Once the cheese cools slightly, slice in half and garnish with sliced green onion. Dip into Buffalo Sauce or Ranch Dressing!

Tips

• Watch the cheese slices carefully. If they cook in the oven for too long, they risk either burning or becoming too gooey to be able to shape properly.
• Try out any other combinations you like in terms of cheese, fillings, and dipping sauces!
