I have another Sloppy Joe recipe for you. This one is a little spicy but my kids loved it. It is also freezer friendly. Make a big batch and eat tonight and freeze some for later. Here is the recipe.
Spicy Sloppy Joes
- 3 lbs Ground Beef
- 3/4 cup onion
- 1 1/2 cups Ketchup
- 3/4 cup water
- 1/2 cup chopped bell pepper
- 1 T lemon juice
- 1 1/2 T Brown Sugar
- 2 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 1/4 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tsp vinegar
- 1/4 + 1/8 tsp dry mustard
Brown Ground Beef and onions. Drain off fat. Add the rest of the ingredients. Simmer on low for 25 to 30 minutes. Cool and divide into meal size potions and freeze.
When ready to serve just thaw and warm up.
Note: I was able to get enough for 3 meals. I was also out of Lemon Juice so I used Lime juice. LOL! Also the total cost of the above meal was under $3!
Cost Break Down:
Buns = Free
Peas = Free
Mac & Cheese $.10
Sloppy Joes Meat (1 container)$2.50

This looks really good…I’m always looking for different sloppy joe recipes.
Thanks, For some reason I like to make it myself instead of a can of Manwich.
