Almost Meatless Sloppy Joes, Cooking Light May 2010
The point of this recipe is that meat is not very good for you, but it does taste very good, so use it more like a seasoning than as the main act. In this recipe, the filling for four sloppy joes is made from just one burger patty. It's boosted with onion, tomato, grated carrot, and beans. I felt like some mushroom would've been great too. An alternative point of this recipe could've been to trick picky children into eating vegetables by masking them in an unintelligible mass of goo, which seems to be a dish that children like.
So, we did eat two servings each though. Which I guess is still less meat than a sloppy joe would've had. And the ingredients all seem healthy, so whatever. We forgot to pick out a side dish, so just one sandwich by itself was insufficient.
The great things about this recipe are that it is very easy and fast to make, it doesn't dirty many dishes, and it tastes good too. So everyone is happy. We will keep this recipe.
