đŠ WAWA âGobblerâ Bowl/Hoagie đŠ (Paleo-Friendly & Gluten, Dairy, Soy, & Refined Sugar Free)
If youâre familiar with Wawa, this next recipe is a real treat! With the âGobblerâ returning to Wawaâs menu just a few weeks ago, my cravings started kicking itđ€€ For those who donât know what a âGobblerâ is, itâs basically a customizable Thanksgiving Dinner on a hoagie or in a bowl I always got mine with a 1/2 Sweet Potato, 1/2 Stuffing base, topped with gravy smothered Turkey, and finished off with extra Cranberry Sauce so thatâs what I decided to recreate!
I began by cooking my Turkey in the slow cooker for 6 hours and whipped up some Paleo Cornbread Stuffing and Whole30 Friendly Mashed Sweet Potatoes blended with Nutpods while it roasted. I also tossed together a simple 4 ingredient Paleo Friendly Cranberry Sauce sweetened with coconut sugar and orange juice that paired perfectly with the Turkey! Prefer your âGobblerâ the traditional way (on a roll)? Use Unbunâs Baguettes or Hamburger Buns to keep this recipe 100% Paleo compliant!
INGREDIENTS:
For the Turkey:
5 lb. Turkey Breast
1 Large or 2 Small Onions, diced fine
1 Tbsp Salt
1 Tsp Pepper
1 Tbsp Coconut Oil
For the Gravy:
2 Cups Broth, I used low sodium Beef Broth
2 Tsp Garlic Powder
1 Tsp Italian Seasoning Blend
Salt & Pepper to taste
1 Cup Water
1/2 Cup Arrowroot Flour (can sub for Coconut)
1 Tbsp Tapioca Flour (optional, but thickens the gravy very nicely)
INSTRUCTIONS:
ï»żBegin by seasoning your Turkey Breast with Salt, Pepper, and The New Primal All Purpose Seasoning, then set aside.
Combine Broth, Onion, & Spices together, then add to the slow cooker and stir well. Place Turkey Breast in slow cooker and top with 1 Tbsp Coconut Oil. Cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 7-8 hours.
While Turkey Breast is Cooking, prepare your âCornâbread Stuffing, Mashed Sweet Potatoes, & Cranberry Sauce. If you havenât already baked your cornbread in advance, start with your Stuffing as the cornbread requires time to cool before you can cube it and turn it into stuffing.
Divide Stuffing evenly amongst 8 rectangular food storage containers. Push Stuffing towards either side and fill the other side with a 1/8 portion of Mashed Sweet Potatoes. Divide your Cranberry Sauce into eight 2 oz condiment cups and serve 1 with each meal, or place cranberry sauce directly on top of your Turkey Breast.
Once Turkey Breast is cooked, remove from slow cooker and set aside. Add Water and both Flours to the the slow cooker and mix well to combine and create your Gravy.
Using a carving knife, slice Turkey Breast until youâve removed all of the meat. Divide meat evenly across all 8 containers, placing it right between the Mashed Potatoes and Stuffing.
Just like you did with your Cranberry Sauce earlier, divide the Gravy into eight 2 oz condiment cups and serve 1 with each meal. You may have some additional gravy leftover so feel free to use it however youâd like!
Smother with Cranberry Sauce & Gravy and your Gobbler Bowl is officially complete! If youâre turning your Paleo âGobbler Bowlâ into a Paleo âGobblerâ, simply layer your ingredients on top of an Unbun Bun and Enjoy!
