+ 1 Guiltless Sloppy joe's

ad

Hey fellas, I have always loved Sloppy Joe's, but they just did not seem to fit in with a really good diet. Well I tried to conjure up a recipe to satisfy my cravings for these.. lol.. Here it is:
1. Brown 1 lb 99/1 lean ground turkey and add 1 can of Manwhich sauce.
2. Put 4-8 ounces of this mixture, the more the merrier :), on 1 Brown Rice Tortilla made by Food for Life, the company that makes Ezekiel bread.

Here is the Macro Breakdown.
1. 4 ounces of the meat and sauce - 120 cals, 1.5 g fat, 0 carbs, 16 grams of protein
2. 1 brown rice tortilla - 130 cals, 2.5 g fat, 24 g carbs, 2 grams protein..

Try it out!! I thought it was pretty damn good !

It's a litte thin and stiff, but it was half the cals and the ingriedients is basically brown rice and sea salt so for me when I compared them I felt better about eating them.. Lol

That sounds like it would be good, but how's the sodium? I'm trying to keep my salt intake pretty low.

Just checked 1 tortilla has 160mg, 4oz of the meat and sauce has 70mg.
