The cold stuffed turkey breast rolls are an easy and quick idea for a no-cook appetizer, or even as a main dish for an everyday dinner.

Stuffed this way, it has still been a huge success, so I thought I’d propose it to you as well.

Once the peppers are peeled and cut into strips, they are used to fill the turkey slices along with arugula and spreadable cheese.

Ingredients
- 6 slices turkey breast
- 2 bell peppers
- 7 oz spreadable cheese
- arugula (to taste)
Tools
- Air Fryer
- Cutting board
- Knife
Steps
To prepare the cold stuffed turkey rolls, first wash the peppers, pat them dry with paper towels, and roast them in an air fryer at 375°F for 15 minutes. Alternatively, you can roast the peppers in the oven at 350°F for 30 or 40 minutes.
After the cooking time, let the peppers cool slightly and peel them. You’ll see that the skin comes off very easily. Then remove the stem and inner filaments and cut them into 3/4-inch wide strips.
Spread a tablespoon of spreadable cheese on a slice of turkey, add the arugula, and also some strips of red and yellow pepper. Then roll the slice to form a roll.
The cold stuffed turkey rolls are ready! Add a few arugula leaves as decoration before serving.
