Pepperoni Cheese Wraps

These Pepperoni Cheese Wraps are going to become one of your favorite keto recipes! These wraps include seasoned pepperoni, smoky provolone or creamy mozzarella, fresh spinach, sliced pepperoncini peppers and a homemade pesto aoili! These keto wraps are the perfect lunch, easy no-cook dinner or meal prep recipe!

One of the best things about these wraps is the flavor combinations. I love pepperoni and pepperoncini peppers together, and the spinach, cheese and aoili really bring it all together. Pepperoni Cheese Wraps are protein packed, so they’ll give you the energy you need to get through your day. And while these easy wraps may be heavy on the flavor, they’re low in carbs! Enjoy a filling wrap for only 5.2 grams of net carbs!

Ingredients in Pepperoni Wraps

As always, here is a quick overview of the ingredients used in our Pepperoni Cheese Wraps. For the complete recipe, just scroll to the bottom of the page.

  • Pepperoni- this recipe calls for large sliced pepperoni that you can find at your local deli. If you only have smaller pepperonis, they will work, but you’ll need several.
  • Mozzarella or provolone cheese
  • Spinach, pepperocini peppers
  • Low carb tortilla or a Zucchini Tortilla– if you aren’t keto, any regular tortilla will work
  • Mayonnaise and Pesto

How to Store these Pepperoni Cheese Wraps

To store these keto sandwiches, I recommend wrapping them in wax paper. I prefer wax paper when I store my wraps because it keeps out moisture and keeps everything inside of the paper fresh.

Tips for the best low carb tortilla wrap

  • Switch up your tortilla! You can use your favorite low carb tortilla, or try a cheese wrap, an egg wrap, a Zucchini Tortilla or a lettuce wrap!
  • Try a different type of meat! Salami, prosciutto or pastrami would all work here. Or make a combination of your meats for a super flavorful wrap!
  • If you have a food processor, I recommend making your own pesto. It’s so easy and is so incredibly delicious!

What should I serve with this keto wrap?

I love a keto side dish, that’s why I’ve got several! Some of my favorites are these Chili Cheese Collard Green Chips, Green Bean Fries, Carrot Fries, Ranch Zucchini Chips or Crispy Keto Fries! Stuffed Mushrooms, Swiss Chard or Zucchini Fritters would also be delicious with this pepperoni wrap!

This Easy Keto Italian Lettuce Wrap is the perfect low-carb lunch idea! This flavor-packed no-cook keto recipe has under 4 net carbs and is easy to meal prep! These Bacon Cheeseburger Quesadillas have all the flavor of a loaded burger with minimal effort! If using a low carb tortilla each Cheeseburger Quesadilla can be made keto-friendly and is about 6 net carbs per serving! Turkey Lettuce Wraps are a great healthy lunch option! Ready in only a couple of minutes, this keto recipe is about 4 net carbs!

Tips for the best Turkey Lettuce Wraps

  • Customize! Use any type of turkey in this recipe- smoked, roasted, whatever you like! If you prefer another type of lunch meat, that is also fine!

Is lettuce keto?

Yes, lettuce is a great option for a keto diet! I love using lettuce in these wraps because it gives a delicious crunch while keeping the carb count low! If you’re looking for easy swaps in your diet to lower your carbs, switching out bread for lettuce in a sandwich is a great start. You can use iceberg, romaine or butter lettuce in this recipe.

How to make Keto Chicken Salad

The best thing about chicken salad is how easy it is to make! Put all your ingredients in a bowl, mix until well mixed, then chill until you’re ready to serve. You can sprinkle more pecans, green onions, or fresh herbs on top as garnish, too. If you’re measuring out your ingredients beforehand, it can be helpful to refer to this guide on How Many Ounces in a Cup, especially if you’re using canned chicken. This guide is easy to follow and printable, so you can refer back to it any time you need it!

Is Chicken Salad Keto?

Generally, yes! Some store-bought chicken salads may have hidden carbs (especially specialty flavors that include dried fruit or sugar-filled condiments), so you still have to be careful when buying a pre-made dish. This chicken salad recipe, however, has 2.7 carbs with 1.6 grams of fiber, so you can enjoy nearly a cup for only 1.1 net carbs!

This easy Keto Chicken Salad is the perfect low carb meal prep recipe! About 1 net carb per serving and delicious on a salad, in a lettuce wrap, or atop a keto bagel!

How long is chicken salad good for?

Chicken salad will keep in an airtight container in the fridge up to 5 days! Make sure it’s not kept at room temperature for long–The more time it spends out of the fridge, the quicker bacteria will takeover and the less time you’ll have to enjoy the meal!

Technically, chicken salad can be frozen… But some people don’t always have great results. Mayonnaise can sometimes separate in the freezing/thawing process which would change the taste and texture. If you do decide to freeze leftovers, allow it to cool completely, scoop it into a freezer bag, suck out all the air from the bag, and freeze up to 3 months.

How to eat chicken salad

There are SO many ways to enjoy chicken salad! You won’t get bored with this easy meal — Here are some of my favorites:

  1. Place a scoop into a lettuce cup for a light, super low-carb lunch.

  6. Fold it up in a low carb tortilla and sear it for a crispy, warm meal like this Chicken Bacon Ranch Tortilla Hack.
  7. Melt some cheese slices, spoon a bit of chicken salad onto them and roll them up like these Green Chile Chicken Taquitos.
