Why this meal fits low carb
Deli turkey and avocado beat sandwiches without bread. Watch for honey-roasted or maple turkey — those add sugar. Plain oven-roasted slices keep net carbs near zero beyond the avocado.
Swaps
Roast beef or chicken slices. Add mustard instead of mayo.
Meal prep
Roll just before eating so avocado stays green. Pack turkey and avocado separately for work.
Ingredients
- 8 slices deli turkey (no sugar added)
- 1/2 avocado, sliced
- 4 slices provolone or Swiss
- Mustard or mayo
- Lettuce leaves (optional)
Instructions
- Lay turkey slices flat. Spread a thin layer of mustard or mayo.
- Add cheese and avocado. Roll tightly.
- Secure with a toothpick if needed. Wrap in lettuce for extra crunch.
Tips
Read deli meat labels — honey ham and glazed turkey add hidden carbs.
