Add some spin to the original Sloppy Joe! Filled with veggies and spice, roll your sleeves up and dig in!
Sloppy Joes does not make a very frequent appearance in our house.
Until there is nothing to eat and I need to throw something together… Same ole’ story?
This time I decided to put a spin on the plain sloppy joe and add some veggies! It gave it a wonderful texture and was very yummy!
Zucchini, corn, and tomatoes. The super version of Sloppy Joes! Cook up the ground beef, add the spices and veggies and heat on low until the mixture has thickened.
Try it with these yummy cheesy biscuits! You’ll never go back! Nothing worse than a soggy bun and these stay firm until the very last bite!
