Sloppy Joes

January 27, 2014 by myrecipeconfessions

I had only had Sloppy Joes one time in my childhood that I can remember. It was at my friends birthday party. It just was not a dish that my mom made…ever. It wasn’t until I started dating my husband that I had them again. There is just something about a good Sloppy Joe that will put a smile on everybody’s face. When ever I make them, I never measure the ingredients. I always just throw things in until it tastes right. Tonight, I finally decided to measure the ingredients and write down the recipe.  This recipe makes enough for about 10 to 12 people. The leftovers can be frozen for a later use. So, ladies and gentlemen, this is what I came up with. I think that when you try it you will be smiling from ear to ear as well!

Until next time,
