Slaw Topped Bison Sliders

Slaw Topped Bison Sliders
Seriously people, I need to know... what's better than taking a meal that has a reputation of being "bad" for you and turning it in to a Clean Eating meal that is not only nutritious but just oozes with deliciousness as well!?

Oh, what can I say... it's the little things that make me happy and these Bison Sliders are no exception!

UUUUUGGGHHH!!  I was all set to post this video on Thursday so we could kick off the Holiday weekend with a Clean and Delicious Burger recipe but due to technical difficulties (something behind the scenes was corrupted) and a serious lack of computer tech knowledge I needed to get in touch with a computer technical genius to help me solve the problem (over a holiday weekend none-the-less).

Anyhow, long story short - everything is fixed and we're ready to go SO read this post as if it's Friday BUT remember - you don't need a holiday weekend to make these simple and tasty burgers.  (Truth be told, I usually have them as a quick go-to during a busy week!!)

I grew up eating the real-deal Sloppy Joe's (a.k.a. "Manwich")  and I'm not gonna lie... they were one of my favorites!  But as my eating habits shifted, Sloppy Joe's just kind of fell off the radar.

Turkey and Avocado Super Sandwich

What makes this Turkey and Avocado Sandwich so super you ask?!  Well other than the fact that it is absolutely d'lishes and super nutritious, it only takes about four minutes to make and requires only three ingredients... pretty super, huh?!

I mean, tell me you don't wanna just take a bite of this thing!?

The PB&B Sandwich - The Ultimate Snack Food

The PB&B Sandwich - The Ultimate Snack Food
Unlike the self-proclaimed life of Denise Richards, eating well does NOT need to be complicated.  Sure we can complicate it if we want to and more often than not we do, but the truth is that it doesn't have to be that way.
