If you do not know me that well, I love to bake and cook. Once I got married I became super excited to cook for my husband. It is sometimes hard to cook for just two but we sometimes just take leftovers to work the next day for lunch.
Yesterday I decided to do something with the groud beef that was in the freezer. I was thinking about doing a taco salad or nachos but that is just too overdone I thought so I went online and came across a sloppy joe recipe. I don't usually like sloppy joe's, they just look gross and messy but I thought I would give it a try and I knew Drew would appreciate me making "man food". When he came home and found out I made sloppy joe's he was super excited and asked if I got manwich to make it. I don't even know what that is. He tried my sloppy joe mixture and said that it was the best sloppy joe he had ever had. Woot woot! Great wife points for me :)
Here is the recipe if you want to give it a try. It's so easy and quick. We didn't have hamburger buns so we used hot dog buns. Use whatever you have.
Ingredients
1 pound ground beef
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (I used garlic salt because we didn't have powder)
1 teaspoon yellow mustard
3/4 cup ketchup
3 teaspoons brown sugar (I added an extra pinch)
salt to taste
ground black pepper to taste
Directions
1. In a medium skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef and onion; drain off liquids.
2. Stir in the garlic powder, mustard, ketchup, and brown sugar; mix thoroughly. Reduce heat, and simmer for 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
That's it! Just 2 steps. How easy is that? Super easy! Hope you guys enjoy this recipe.
Aw, you guys are cute! I'm glad you liked it! :) That recipe is awesome!
