INGREDIENTS
6 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce
1/4 cup chopped Onion
1/4 cup diced Red Bell Pepper
3 cloves Garlic, minced
2 Romaine Lettuce Leaves
1 tsp Olive Oil
Spices: Salt, Pepper, Paprika (to taste)
PREPARATION
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
Sauté the minced garlic, chopped onion, and diced red bell pepper until they soften, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks.
Pour in the tomato sauce and stir in the spices (salt, pepper, and paprika) to taste. Let the mixture simmer for 5-7 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
While the turkey mixture simmers, wash and pat dry the romaine lettuce leaves to use as wraps.
Spoon a generous portion of the sloppy joe mixture onto each lettuce leaf.
Serve immediately and enjoy this protein-packed, low-calorie twist on the traditional sloppy joe.
