# Instructions:

01 - First things first, get your ingredients all laid out. I find it so much easier when everything is within arm's reach, especially when I'm trying to assemble these quickly. Grab your tortillas, cheeses, meats, and peppers. Also, set up a small bowl with olive oil and another with your Italian seasoning and garlic powder mixed together. This is where I always forget to have everything ready and end up scrambling, so learn from my mistakes!
02 - Lay one large flour tortilla flat on your clean counter. Start with two slices of provolone cheese, placing them slightly off-center towards one edge. This helps with the folding later. Then, layer your salami, pepperoni, and ham over the cheese. Don't overload it, hon, seriously! I made that mistake once, and the wrap exploded in the air fryer. A good, even layer is what you're aiming for.
03 - Next, scatter some drained roasted red peppers and banana pepper rings over the meats. If you're adding red onion, sprinkle a few super thin slices now. This is where the magic really starts to happen, smelling like a gourmet deli! Give it a light sprinkle of your Italian seasoning and garlic powder mix. This step is crucial for flavor, so don't skip it; it really wakes everything up.
04 - Now for the tricky part, but you've got this! Fold in the sides of the tortilla over the filling, just enough to contain everything. Then, starting from the edge closest to the filling, roll the tortilla up tightly but gently, like you're tucking in a blanket. You want it snug so nothing falls out, but not so tight it tears. I've torn a few in my time, and it's a bit of a kitchen disaster, but still tasty!
05 - Once your Easy Air Fryer Hot Italian Wrap is rolled, brush the outside lightly with olive oil. This is key for that beautiful golden-brown crisp! Then, give it another light sprinkle of the Italian seasoning mix. This adds flavor to the outside and makes it look extra appealing. Don't overdo the oil; just a thin, even coat is all you need for that perfect air-fried finish.
06 - Place your prepared wrap seam-side down in the air fryer basket. Don't overcrowd the basket; I usually do one or two at a time, depending on the size of my air fryer. Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway through, until it's golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is gloriously melted. It should look like a perfectly toasted sandwich, but with all that Italian goodness inside!

# Notes:

01 - Don't overfill your wraps, seriously, I learned that the hard way!
02 - For best results, these are truly best enjoyed fresh, right out of the air fryer.
03 - Try swapping in different deli meats like capicola or even thinly sliced turkey for variety.
04 - A small bowl of warm marinara sauce for dipping is an absolute game-changer.
