Easy Crock Pot Sloppy Joes!

When I make my weekly grocery list, sometimes I am totally stumped about things to fix that are healthy, easy to make, and that my kids will actually eat with no drama. ;)

And that's when I usually think: SLOPPY JOES!! It doesn't get much easier than a little ground beef (or turkey!) add in some spices and ketchup, throw it all in a crock pot and then in 4 - 6 hours you have an easy meal! I love serving mine on a whole wheat bun with a slice of cheese and a side of veggies. YUM!




(My new crock pot is hardly full with this recipe! Next time I'll double it since my kids LOVED it!)



Easy Crock Pot Sloppy Joes (adapted from The Happy Housewife)

  • 1/4 cup chopped onion, about half an onion

  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard

  • 3/4 cup ketchup

  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Brown ground beef or turkey. Add the meat and remaining ingredients to crockpot and cook on low for 4 - 6 hours. ENJOY!!

Yum! I am such a little kid, and I totally LOVE sloppy joes. I usually just use the packet mix, but I am really excited to try this recipe. The best part is that they are all ingredients I have on hand!
