Now, of course, you can make a keto turkey sandwich with my Wholesome Yum Keto Bread Mix, or keto white bread, or almond flour bread, or even 90-second bread… but this is a colorful, veggie-filled twist on a turkey sandwich that I know will satisfy any sandwich craving.
What Is A Bell Pepper Sandwich?
If you’ve heard about the TikTok bell pepper sandwich, this is it! It’s a keto and low carb sandwich that swaps bread slices with a halved bell pepper, then stuffs all of the sandwich fillings inside.
Ingredients & Substitutions
Here I explain the best ingredients for keto bell pepper sandwiches, what each one does in the recipe, and substitution options. For measurements, see the recipe card below.
Bell peppers – This will be our bread replacement in the sandwiches. I used red bell peppers, but you can use any color you like. All bell peppers are keto! Mayonnaise – Use homemade mayonnaise or store-bought. I recommend avocado oil mayo for a clean ingredient option. Whole grain Dijon mustard – You can also swap this for your favorite mustard. Leaf lettuce – Use a green leaf lettuce or romaine. Deli turkey slices – Look for a deli turkey without added sugar. Cooked bacon – Microwaving your bacon or air fryer bacon are the quickest way to do it for a quick sandwich, or you can meal prep a larger batch of bacon in the oven to use for other bacon recipes as well. Cheese – I used provolone, but pick your favorite! Here’s a full cheese list with carb counts. Avocado – Look for a ripe avocado that’s is firm and not too soft, but not rock hard.

Recipe Variations
Looking for more bell pepper sandwich ideas? Try one of these:
Green pepper – Try a green bell pepper (or a yellow or orange one!) instead of a red one for a different flavor. Ham and cheese – Swap out the turkey and provolone for deli ham and cheddar cheese. Vegetarian – Instead of deli meat, use keto hummus, a slice of cheese, sliced cucumbers and alfalfa sprouts.
Storage Instructions
Store: You can keep the bell pepper sandwich in the refrigerator for a few hours. If storing longer, remove the avocado so it doesn’t brown. Meal prep: Cut and prep bell peppers. Assemble right before serving.
