PREPARATION

• 1

  Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

  Add the finely diced yellow onion and green bell pepper to the skillet, sautéing for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are soft and translucent.

• 3

  Add the ground turkey to the pan, using a wooden spoon to break the meat into small crumbles as it browns completely.

  Stir in the minced garlic, sea salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika, cooking for about 1 minute until the spices become fragrant.

• 5

  Pour in the tomato puree, honey, apple cider vinegar, and coconut aminos, stirring thoroughly to incorporate the sauce into the meat.

• 6

  Reduce the heat to low and allow the mixture to simmer for 6-8 minutes until the sauce thickens and develops a glossy consistency.

• 7

  While the meat is simmering, lightly toast the whole-wheat slider buns in a dry pan or toaster oven until the edges are golden brown.

  Spoon a generous portion of the sloppy joe mixture onto the bottom half of each toasted bun, top with the other half, and serve immediately.
