Healthy. Turkey. Meatloaf. Sandwiches.

Say whaaat?

Here’s the thing.

It’s not often that I crave meatloaf.

I’m sure you guys are all with me. 😉

But just trust me on this one, because this isn’t just any weird, old, grey blob of meat.

THIS is a recipe for Healthy Turkey Meatloaf Sandwiches.

And.

They.

RULE.

Think classic meatloaf but better. 😉

Better FOR you, because they’re made with turkey. BETTER flavored, because of yummy things like tangy apple cider vinegar and mushrooms.

And I mean, just overall better in general, because, I mean, meatloaf sandwiches > meatloaf slices.

Who’s ready to kick this classic up a notch?!

Turkey Meatloaf Sandwiches Recipe - Show Me the Yummy (2)

TheseHealthy Turkey Meatloaf Sandwiches start by combining buttermilk and Ozery Bakery’s One Bun Whole Wheat 100 Cal Sandwich Buns.Ozery Bakery is a family-owned alternative to traditional bread products. Their products are made from hearty whole grains, fruits and seeds, are UNBELIEVABLYdelicious…

Plus, I mean, these buns are 100 calories, soooo YESplease!

This little magical combo is what gives these sandwiches tons of moisture and flavor without a ton of calories.

While the bread gets nice and soft, you’re going to prepare the rest of the ingredients: chop some onion and mushrooms.

Mix everything up, form them into patties, then top with with a little ketchup and apple cider vinegar, and bake ‘em up.

Now. While THAT deliciousness above is baking to perfection, you’re going to make a quick little sautéed mushroom situation.

Melt coconut oil —> add mushrooms + salt, pepper, and apple cider vinegar —> cook until tender —> DONE.

All that’s left is to make some sandwiches!

For the base, we’re using another One Bun Whole Wheat 100 Cal Sandwich Bun.

Bun —> spinach —> meatloaf burger —> mushrooms —> bun.

Thiscombo, you guys, is absolutely killer. The thin, yet hearty bun is the perfect vessel for the tender, ultra moist turkey meatloaf, and tangy mushrooms.
