1) High Protein Christmas Turkey Roll
Let us start with this protein-packed treat, which is a classic, but today we’ll bump it up in terms of health, goodness and amount of protein…yeah, because the turkey itself isn’t enough for us gains connoisseurs.
The ingredients are:
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Flatten the turkey breast with a meat tenderizer or something akin, season both sides with black pepper and salt and put it to rest in the fridge.
- In the meantime, clean and peel the potatoes and the carrots with the onion and the celery, then prepare a pot and bring to a boil and let them cook for twelve minutes.
- Drain the vegetables and start mashing them clumsily with a fork, then add half a teaspoon of salt, 3 tablespoons of grated parmesan, break the baked ham in it along with the cheese of your choice, the boiled egg (be generous with the ham!) mince and add the parsley, set aside the mixture.
- Take out the turkey from the fridge and place it on a baking sheet, with some baking paper and cover the meat with bread crumbs until well coated.
- Spread the turkey and then start scooping the veggies\ham mixture on it, spreading it evenly then make a roll out of it.
- Add more bread crumbs to the outside of the roll and drizzle well with 3 tablespoons of olive oil.
- Wrap the roll inside the baking paper like it’s a big candy and bake in a pre-heated oven at 200C° for 30 minutes, once it’s done turn off the oven and let it rest inside for a bit, then cut into slice and serve.
