Sloppy Joes (Ellie Krieger, "The Food You Crave" p 91)

PREP: Easy
TASTE : OK
REPEAT : Maybe with modifications

This version of sloppy joes utilizes extra veggies that some in my family don't care for, like the bell peppers, but I enjoy having veggies in the sandwich.  However, it was a bit too soupy and that may be do to the amount of tomato sauce.  Reheating the filling for sandwiches seemed to be OK.  It is highly rated on the Food Network site (recipe here: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ellie-krieger/sloppy-joes-recipe/index.html) but we didn't care of it so much.  However, I may try with some chipotle peppers in adobo sauce as one review suggested.

INGREDIENTS : ground beef, onion, garlic, jalepeno, red pepper, pinto beans or red beans, tomato sauce, tomato paste, red wine vinegar, molasses, Worcestershire, mustard
