TURKEY, BACON AND RANCH TORTILLA ROLL-UPS

Steps:

• Arrange the bacon in a single layer in a large nonstick skillet and cook over medium heat, flipping occasionally, until well browned and crisp, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain on a paper-towel-lined plate. Pour the rendered bacon fat into a small heatproof bowl and wipe out the skillet; reserve both. Once the bacon has cooled slightly, roughly chop into small pieces.
• Lay 1 tortilla on a clean work surface. Top with 3 slices of the cheese, tearing some of the slices to fit in an even layer. Next, top with 3 slices of the turkey, making sure to cover the cheese completely. Spread 1 tablespoon of the ranch dressing over the turkey, then sprinkle with half of the chopped bacon. Tightly roll up the tortilla, tucking the filling in as you go. Wrap tightly in a 12-by-12-inch piece of foil, pinching the ends to seal. Repeat with the remaining tortilla, cheese, turkey, ranch and bacon.
• Combine the hot sauce and butter in a small saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter has melted and the sauce is smooth, about 4 minutes. Keep warm.
• Return the reserved skillet to the stove over medium heat. Place the foil-wrapped rolls in the skillet and cook, turning occasionally, until heated through, about 4 minutes per side. (Wrapping and cooking the rolls in foil first will help keep their shape for easy slicing.) Remove the rolls and discard the foil. Add 1 tablespoon of the reserved bacon fat to the skillet. Return the rolls to the skillet, seam-side down, and cook until the tortilla is well browned on all sides, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
• Slice each roll crosswise into about 10 pinwheels. Serve with the Buffalo sauce and more ranch dressing, for dipping.
