  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked meat with reduced-fat mozzarella cheese, turkey pepperoni slices, and marinara sauce. Stir until evenly coated.
  3. Lay high-protein tortillas flat. Spoon filling into the center, fold sides in, and roll tightly to keep filling secure.
  4. Preheat air fryer to 375°F or oven to 400°F. Brush outside of rolls with olive oil or egg wash.
