How To Make A High Protein Turkey Club

Nothing beats a thick, ‘can’t wrap your mouth around it’ turkey club. However, sometimes, all those layers of bread start to feel too heavy in the summer heat. So, we decided to jump on the lettuce wrap trend that we have seen around social media. Our version is the next level, though.

We took the standard one or two layers of lettuce and use a half a small head as the buns. Next, we added our egg white patties to amp up the protein. Sliced turkey breast + egg white patties = ~24g of protein, which is the recommended amount per meal.

Then we added in the traditional items like tomato and bacon. Lastly, we finished it off with an amount of guacamole that will send you to the moon and back. Just kidding, but it is guaranteed to keep you satisfied for hours! When you skip out on the carbs, it is essential to make sure that you have extra fat to keep you satiated. We wish we could say that protein alone would be enough to sustain you, but unfortunately, it’s not. The fat + protein combination is the key to low carb staying power.

If you aren’t following a keto or low carb diet, pair this with some fresh fruit, heck, or even some chips! After all, life is all about balance, right?
