Italian Sandwich Rolls
I don't miss bread on my Paleo journey very often, but there are just some meals that necessitate it. Sloppy Joes are definitely one of them. That was my original intent when creating these Italian Sandwich Rolls, however I discovered they are great for many other things as well. Deli meats & hamburgers have found a happy spot in the middle of this Paleo Roll!
Just because of the nature of nut flours, they don't hold together as well as traditional white flour, so eat your Sloppy Joes quickly or have a fork handy, either way, the flavor is scrumptious.
