Let’s Do Lunch Sloppy Joes (DEELICIOUS!)
(R.M.’s Made Rights from Red Book)
For any of the newbies looking for a quick and EASY recipe.
Will take total of about 70 minutes from start to finish (or 65 if you already have meat browned ahead of time), Freezes well (if you have extra leftover) and kids/hubby think they’re getting SLOPPY JOES!!!!
Here goes:
Ingredients:
• 1 lb. ground sirloin or extra-lean ground beef
• 2 lb. ground, skinless turkey breast (turkey will take on the flavor of the beef)
• 1 medium onion – finely chopped
• ½ cup solidly packed, 100 percent natural pumpkin
• 2 -10 3/4 oz. cans condensed tomato soup (Campbell’s)
• 1 -12 oz. jar chili sauce
• 1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
• 1 tsp. pepper
• 1 tsp. salt
Directions: Brown beef and turkey. Add onions and cook until done. Drain off liquids. Add remaining ingredients and simmer for 60 minutes. Serve in half of a whole wheat, rye or whole-grain bun with the soft insides removed and discarded, or serve in lettuce wraps.
