Now my friends, this is a recipe that you should make right away! I have been making these sandwiches for a long time, and let me tell you, they are delicious! It’s a healthier alternative to ground beef, and it takes no time to put together. In fact, you can probably have this on the table within 30 minutes – even with a screaming toddler hanging on your leg. (Trust me – I know!) I usually serve this with (don’t judge me) Funyons or regular chips. A healthier alternative would be chips/salsa or carrot sticks/celery with a side of fruit. The sandwiches themselves are so good that you won’t need a fancy side to steal the attention away. Enjoy!
