Sloppy Joes with Fresh Veggies & Dip by Jes Mostek	No ratings Rating Details Rate this meal Printable View

Make Sloppy Joes and cut up fresh veggies: celery, baby carrots, cherry or grape tomatoes, jicama, broccoli, cauliflower, etc. Serve veggies with Dill Dip.

Just a note on the Dill Dip- be sure to make it ahead of time (the night before, maybe), because the dip needs to sit for a few hours to get just the right flavor.

In addition to the recipes, you will also need the following for this meal:

1 pkg.

cherry, or grape tomatoes

1 bag

baby carrots (peeled)

1 bag

celery (to cut up for celery sticks)

1 pt.

cherry or grape tomatoes

This classic Sloppy Joe's recipe is great for a crowd; kids love these little buggers (I mean, the name alone!) and left-overs freeze wonderfully!

Ingredients:

1 lb.

ground turkey or beef

1 large

onion, chopped

2 T.

vinegar

2 T.

Worcestershire sauce

2 T.

sugar

1 tsp.

paprika

1 tsp.

chili powder

1 1/2 c.

ketchup

2 tsp.

molasses, optional

water, as needed

hamburger buns

1 (8 oz.) pkg.

sliced cheese

Directions:

Brown meats with onion. Add vinegar, Worchestershire, sugar, spices and ketchup. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer. Cook on simmer for 20 minutes before serving. You may need to add water, depending on your desired consistency. Serve on a bun with a cheese slice.

This recipe converts extremely well to a crock pot or slow cooker. Simply put all the ingredients in the crock pot in the morning (you don’t even need to cook the meat—just be sure to mash and mix it all up a bit), and it will be ready for you when you get home. Give it a stir and sit down to eat.
