Essential Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to make this delicious dish:

• Flour Tortillas: Opt for large tortillas; they provide ample space for delicious fillings.
• Cooked Roast Beef: Tender slices work best; leftover roast beef is perfect for this recipe.
• Swiss Cheese: Its creamy texture melts beautifully and adds a delightful flavor.
• Beef Broth: Use low-sodium broth for better control over saltiness when dipping.
• Dijon Mustard: A hint of mustard enhances flavors without overpowering the dish.
• Fresh Parsley: Chopped parsley adds color and freshness to the rolls.
• Black Pepper: Freshly cracked pepper elevates the overall taste profile in every bite.

The full ingredients list, including measurements, is provided in the recipe card directly below.

Let’s Make it together

Prepare the Filling: Start by shredding your cooked roast beef into bite-sized pieces in a bowl. Add black pepper and chopped parsley for flavor. Mix thoroughly until combined.

Assemble Your Rolls: Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard over it before layering shredded beef and Swiss cheese evenly across one side.

Tightly Roll It Up: Carefully fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll it tightly from the edge with fillings towards the other end. Ensure it’s snug but not too tight to avoid bursting.

Sear Until Golden Brown: In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and place each rolled-up tortilla seam-side down. Cook until golden brown on all sides—about 3-5 minutes each side should do.

Heat Your Broth for Dipping: While your rolls are cooking, pour beef broth into a small saucepan over low heat until warmed through but not boiling. Stir occasionally to keep it flavorful.

Slice & Serve!: Remove the rolls from skillet after achieving that beautiful golden hue. Slice them diagonally into bites-sized pieces before serving with warm broth on the side for dipping!

These French Dip Tortilla Roll Ups are sure to be a hit at any gathering or simply enjoyed as an easy weeknight meal! Each bite promises savory goodness paired perfectly with warm broth—a deliciously cozy experience awaits you!

Perfecting the Cooking Process

Start by preparing the filling while your tortilla wraps warm slightly. This ensures everything rolls up perfectly without tearing.

Add Your Touch

Feel free to swap out meats or add veggies. Throw in some sautéed mushrooms or bell peppers for extra flavor and nutrition.

Storing & Reheating

Store any leftovers covered in the fridge for up to three days. Reheat in an oven at 350°F until warmed through for optimal texture.

Creating these roll-ups reminds me of a gathering where my friends devoured them before I even got a chance to taste. Their smiles were worth every minute spent in the kitchen!
