HOW TO COOK SLOPPY JOES IN THE CROCK POT

Green Pepper

Salt & Pepper

Condensed Tomato Soup

Ketchup

Mustard

Brown Sugar

Hamburger Buns

MY TIPS FOR THIS SLOPPY JOE RECIPE

- Have you ever tried putting plain potato chips on your sloppy joes? If not, you should try it! The crunch and the saltiness adds so much. I never serve sloppy joes without chips. 

- I also like to spread both sides of the hamburger bun with butter and then toast them in the oven for just a few minutes on low broil. If you're feeling fancy, then add a piece of cheese and let it melt!

- The sloppy joe meat does well on the warm setting once it has cooked. Which means that it's the perfect meal to leave on the warm setting and let people eat as they can. 

- This recipe serves 6 sloppy joes but can easily be doubled if necessary.

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground turkey
• 1 yellow onion finely diced
• 1 green pepper finely diced
• 1/3 cup thinly sliced celery
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 1 can (10 3/4 oz) condensed tomato soup
• 1/2 cup ketchup
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
• 6 hamburger buns

Instructions

• In a skillet pan, over medium high heat, cook ground turkey, onion, green pepper, celery, salt & pepper until meat is no longer pink. Break up into crumbles as you cook it. Drain. Add into the crock pot insert.
• Add the tomato soup, ketchup, brown sugar, and mustard in with meat and stir together until combined. It may seem like there is not enough liquid but trust me, it's good. Don't add any additional liquid.
• Cook on low heat for 4 hours. After the cook time is over it can be on the 'warm' setting for a few hours if needed.
• Scoop out sloppy joe mixture with a slotted spoon. Serve on hamburger buns.
• If wanted, spread the hamburger buns with butter OR cooking spray and place under a high broil in the oven for about 1 minute. Can also add a slice of cheese if wanted.

Notes

Calorie count is for 1 sloppy joe. Includes meat and hamburger bun. Recipe can easily be doubled if needed. 

 

If wanted you can toast the hamburger buns for and even better sloppy joe. Separate buns and spread each with some butter OR spray them with a little bit of cooking spray. Place in the oven under a high broil and let them cook for 1-2 minutes. They will burn quickly so watch very carefully.

 

You can also add a slice of cheese to these sloppy joes. 

 

The sloppy joe mixture will keep on the 'warm' setting of the slow cooker for several hours, if needed. After the 4 hour cook time.
