Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface.
Spread 2-3 tablespoons of pizza sauce evenly over the middle of the tortilla, leaving a small border around the edges.
Sprinkle 1/4 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
Add 5 slices of pepperoni, 1/4 cup of cooked sausage, a handful of diced bell peppers, a sprinkling of black olives, and a pinch of fresh basil on top of the cheese.
Lightly sprinkle the filling with garlic powder and Italian seasoning for added flavor.
Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards, then roll it tightly from the bottom to form a burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and ingredients.
Brush the outside of each burrito lightly with olive oil to help it crisp up while cooking.
Place the burritos in the preheated skillet seam-side down and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla is golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the skillet and let the burritos cool for 1-2 minutes before serving.
Cut the burritos in half for easier handling and serve with extra pizza sauce on the side for dipping.
