Buffalo Blue Turkey Sloppy Joes with Arugula and Spinach

January 27, 2016

With the Big Game coming up in February, everybody’s looking for fun food to make for their football parties.

Want something new?

You may think these are typical. They’re so not.

On top of being severely delicious, they’re actually not that bad for you. I went with lean ground turkey from Sprouts (exceptional quality, by the way) and I added peppery arugula and spinach to round it all out. You’ll get your greens in!

You’re welcome.

These are perfect for entertaining; you can customize them by decreasing or increasing the buffalo sauce and blue cheese according to your taste – the hotter the better for me. I even considered making this a dip instead of a sandwich – I was really torn.

Here’s your printable!

I do love Sprouts-but probably not as much as I’d love this sandwich!
