Thank you Parents magazine for this delicious Sloppy Joe recipe! I have been craving Sloppy Joes, but there are no mixes here in Luxembourg. Turns out I didn’t need a mix after all–I had all the ingredients right in my fridge. These were easy and totally hit the spot. Serve with Classic Potato Salad, Oven Roasted Potatoes or Sweet Potato Fries for a great comfort food meal!
