Sloppy Joes

Jana here with a quick weeknight dinner you can make in under 30 minutes. It's a great recipes for children to help with also. My 8 year old son made this, with minor supervision from me. We found a recipe for Sloppy Joes in our Better Homes and Garden cookbook, and modified it to make this recipe. Sloppy Joes are traditionally served with a bun or bread, but I think serving it over quinoa or cauliflower rice would be good as well!

Sloppy Joes

1 pound ground beef, venison, or turkey

1/2 cup chopped onion

1/2 cup chopped sweet pepper (any variety)

1 can tomato sauce (8 ounce)

1/4 cup water

1 teaspoon chili powder

1/2 teaspoon garlic salt (or 1/2 teaspoon salt + 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder)

1. In a large skillet, cook ground beef, onion, and peppers until meat is browned and vegetables are tender. Drain off any fat.

2. Stir in tomato sauce, water, chili powder, and garlic salt.

3. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let simmer for 5-10 minutes.

Enjoy!
