Hi Fitness Buff,
We can make your meal planning routine easier.
I was wondering how could I make a lunch out of turkey and the result of this thinking was this recipe!
Though I have tried several turkey recipes before, this one is the best according to me. I prepare Turkey Sloppy Joes regularly for my lunch and I must say that no other hamburger can ever come close to this one.
Besides being extremely tasty, this dish is nutritious. In fact, every bite of this dish is loaded with lots of protein and carbs. Anyone wishing to try a turkey dish and gain a lot from it can certainly give this recipe a try. They will not be disappointed for sure.
