Sloppy Joe Recipe

Here’s a quick and easy Sloppy Joe mix I got off the internet. My daughter was in the mood for Sloppy Joes, I didn’t have a can of Manwich around and the only ingredient missing was a green pepper. I asked her to go out and get one of the pathetic peppers from our garden (the vegetables this year did not grow). I was able to get a ¼ cup of chopped pepper. Enjoy!

Ingredients
1 pound lean ground beef (we used ground turkey)
¼ cup chopped onion
¼ cup chopped green bell pepper
½ teaspoon garlic
1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard
¾ cup ketchup
3 teaspoons brown sugar
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions
In a medium skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef, onion, and green pepper; drain off liquids.

Stir in the garlic powder, mustard, ketchup, and brown sugar; mix thoroughly. Reduce heat, and simmer for 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.


Now was that simple? And it’s tasty too!
