Buffalo Turkey Joes

Sometimes I feel the need to make a "make Parker happy" meal. I mean let's face it. He's a man which means all food makes him happy, but I knew this recipe would be one he would love. That husband loves anything buffalo, so he loved this dinner. And so did my waistline! This meal was super healthy without sacrificing on taste. The best part though? It was ready in mere minutes. Hello, dream dinner. It will be on the menu again and again!

Ingredients (serves 4):
1 lb extra lean ground turkey
8 oz can tomato sauce
1 cup buffalo sauce (however spicy you like it!)
Burger buns
Chopped red onion/green onion/celery/blue cheese/etc to garnish (I used blue cheese and green onion
salt and pepper, to taste

Directions:
1. In a large skillet sprayed with cooking spray, brown turkey over medium-high heat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
2. Once your turkey is browned and crumbly, reduce the heat to low and stir in tomato sauce and buffalo sauce. Let the sauce simmer for a few minutes. 
3. Take a burger bun and load it with your turkey filling. Garnish with your favorite toppings and serve!


Enjoy!

  5. Here I am (roughly 3 seconds ago) g-chatting with my hubby about what to do with the ground turkey I pulled out of the freezer this morning and he says "sloppy joes" I wince because we just ate this last week, and probably the week before that too. I click back over to my bloglovin' feed and BAM this post. You are a life saver and thanks to you I will literally be eating this exact recipe tonight instead of the dreaded and repetitive sloppy joes. THANK YOUUUUUU!!!! XO
