Ditch the Bread, Embrace the Flavor: Low-Carb Turkey Roll-Ups

Looking for a quick, satisfying, and low-carb lunch option? Look no further than these delicious turkey roll-ups! They’re packed with protein and healthy fats, making them perfect for fueling your day without the extra carbs. Plus, they’re incredibly versatile – customize them with your favorite fillings for endless flavor combinations.

Ingredients:

• 6 slices deli turkey breast (look for sugar-free options)
• 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened (or substitute with pesto for a different flavor profile)
• 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/2 cup chopped vegetables (bell peppers, cucumbers, celery, spinach, or a mix)
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (optional)
• Salt and pepper to taste

Cooking Guide:

1. Spread it out: Lay the turkey slices flat on a clean work surface.
2. Flavor base: In a small bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and Dijon mustard (if using). Spread this mixture evenly over each turkey slice.
3. Layer it up: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the cream cheese layer. Top with your chosen chopped vegetables. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Roll it up: Starting from a short end, tightly roll up each turkey slice with the filling inside. Secure with toothpicks if desired.
5. Slice and serve: Cut each roll-up in half for easier dipping or enjoy them whole.

Tips:

• Variety is key: Get creative with your fillings! Try different cheeses, sliced avocado, olives, roasted red peppers, or even a dollop of your favorite low-carb salsa.
• Make it a meal: Pair your turkey roll-ups with a side salad drizzled with olive oil and vinegar, or some low-carb veggie sticks for extra fiber.
• Meal prep magic: Prepare a large batch of these roll-ups at the beginning of the week and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They’ll be ready to grab and go for a quick, healthy lunch.
• Spice it up: Add a kick of flavor with a sprinkle of your favorite herbs and spices like paprika, garlic powder, or Italian seasoning.
• Leftover love: Leftover roasted vegetables from dinner? Throw them in these roll-ups for a delicious use-it-up solution.
