Sloppy Joe Bowls

This is a super easy twist on a classic Sloppy Joe, and makes for an easy weeknight supper. We like to serve it over top of the rice from the freezer section in Trader Joe's. It cooks up in no time in the microwave. Easy, easy! 

Sloppy Joe Bowls

Serves: 4-6 Prep time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

1 lb lean ground beef

1/2 red onion, diced

1 green pepper, diced

1 tablespoon garlic, minced

8 ounces tomato sauce

1/2 cup ketchup

2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

2 tablespoons brown sugar

1 tsp yellow mustard

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp onion powder

Salt and Pepper

Directions:

1. In a large skillet, begin browning your ground beef, breaking it up into small pieces. 

2. When your ground beef is nearly cooked, add in onion and green peppers. Allow to cook for a few minutes, then stir in garlic. 

3. Next, stir in tomato sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, and season with salt and pepper. 

4. Mix together and allow to simmer for a few minutes. While it is simmering, cook up your rice. 

5. To serve, spoon rice into a bowl and top with the ground beef mixture. We like to serve this with some shredded cheddar cheese on top.
