Sloppy Joes
Vickie Young
Sloppy Joes are quick and perfect for a busy weeknight. Much more than the sweet, messy lunch lady sandwich. This tangy, beefy, slightly spicy recipe is a satisfying meal. Keep it simple with some frozen veggies or a can of green beans. Serve on toasted hamburger buns and enjoy.

In a large skillet, brown ground beef over medium heat. Drain fat and add onions. Cook until onions are softened and add garlic, cooking until just fragrant.
Add Chili Sauce then fill the Chili Sauce bottle half full of water, shake it to get the last bit of goodness out and add to pan. Add remaining ingredients and simmer for 10-15 minutes until thickened.
Toast buns on a stovetop griddle or under the broiler. Serve and enjoy!
