Why This Recipe Works
This wrap is quick and low in carbs. The provolone melts well and holds the salami and pepperoni. The banana peppers add tang without sugar. A light drizzle of Italian dressing keeps it juicy but not heavy. The tortilla browns and becomes crisp, so you get a melt and a sandwich feel in one simple pan.
