Turkey + Veggie Sandwich on a Pepper ‘Bun’

September 12, 2017 Leave a Comment

Swapping out the bread for a fresh and crunchy bell pepper gives this Turkey and Veggie Sandwich a fun and unconventional twist.

It’s an easy way to cut back on refined grains and add more veggies into your diet.

Remember to swap in your favorite sammie fillers to create a lunch that excites and satisfies you.

*Note: this recipe is featured alongside my Avocado + Egg Bowl and my Quinoa Black Bean + Mango Bowl in my Easy Healthy Protein Packed Lunch Episode.  You can see all three recipes in the video below.
