Chopped Turkey Sandwich
This is a play on the viral chopped Italian sandwich. It’s loaded with flavor, but still WW friendly.
All it takes is some chopping and mixing then each bite has a little bit of everything.
Each sandwich is only 3 points. If you’re really hungry, you could have two sandwiches for 6 points.

The Ingredients
Aunt Millie’s Live Carb Smart Hot Dog Buns: These buns are only 1 point each. That helped to save a lot of points.
The original chopped Italian sandwich uses a sub bun or hoagie roll. On average those would be 6 points.
Sliced turkey breast: My go-to lunch meat is always Boar’s Head. I bought oven roasted turkey breast, which was 0 points.
Part-skim mozzarella cheese slices: I only used 1 1/2 slices of cheese, which was 3 points.
Light mayonnaise: Three tablespoons of light mayonnaise was 4 points. Regular mayonnaise would have been 10 points.
Red onion: This adds so much flavor and it’s 0 points.
Banana Peppers: Another great option to add flavor without adding points.
Shredded lettuce: I bought a bag of shredded lettuce instead of a head of lettuce. It was a shortcut so I didn’t have to do as much chopping.
Seasonings: I used oregano, salt, and pepper.
How to Make Chopped Turkey Sandwiches
Add the lettuce to a cutting board. Top it with the turkey, cheese, red onion, and banana peppers.
Grab a sharp knife and chop everything until it’s in small, bite-size pieces.
Once it’s chopped, add the mayonnaise, red wine vinegar, oregano, salt, and pepper.
Mix everything together until it is incorporated.
I wanted my hot dog buns to be toasted. I put them on a baking sheet, opened them up, and sprayed them with olive oil spray.
Next, I placed the buns under the broiler for 3-4 minutes.
When the buns were done, I added 1/4 of the mixture to each one.
Check out the video within this post to see exactly how I made it.
Serving Suggestions
Baked potato chips are always a favorite of mine to serve with a sandwich.
It’s super easy to make in the air fryer, or you can bake them in the oven.
Fruit is a good 0 point side to go with this sandwich. Mandarin oranges, strawberries, grapes, or apple slices are all good options.
Carrot and celery sticks with a low point dip are another great option.
