These sloppy joes with toasted cheesy hamburger buns are fantastic. We love our served with homemade sweet potato fries.

Tips:
  • The recipe can be cut in half for a smaller family.
  • Or doubled for a larger crowd.
  • These sloppy joes are freezer friendly. Simply store cooled sloppy joes in a zip top bag or airtight container and freeze.

I often make 1.5 times the amount and then freeze half of it. Then when I’m ready to use it I simply thaw it out, warm it up and dinner is done in less than 15 minutes!

Have a great day!
