Sloppy Joes Sandwiches
I tend to keep all the essentials needed for sloppy joes on hand at all times. Freeze up some hamburger buns and have them on hand to thaw and cook for meals when you need something quick to serve a crowd.
How to Make Sloppy Joes
Step 1: Start by adding your ground beef into the skillet. You will then add in your diced onion and cook along with the hamburger to help soften it up a bit.
Step 2: Now add in the remaining ingredients, stir, and cook until the mixture is ready to pile in your buns.
See how easy it is to make these easy sloppy joes. Quick, easy, and minimal ingredients required.
What To Serve With Sloppy Joes Sandwiches
- Tater Tots
- Chips
- French Fries
- Coleslaw
- Cucumber and Onions
- Etc
Essentially you can serve this with any of your favorite side dishes. I love doing crunchy tots or even a tangy pickle.
Can I Swap With Ground Turkey
You are more than welcome to swap out your ground beef with ground turkey or even ground chicken. It will change the flavor a bit but can make it a bit leaner and healthier.
