Turkey & Vegetable Sloppy Joe's

This is healthy and soooo delicious! I literally had to stop myself from eating bite after bite so I could take the picture. You can make it vegan by substituting Morningstar Crumbles instead of turkey.

I like lots of veggies in my Sloppy Joes. I made these open faced using a half burger bun leftover from yesterday's Big Mac recipe.

Sloppy Joes are so easy, there's no need to buy canned sauce. 

Chop 1 onion, 1 red bell pepper, 2 carrots, & 2 celery stalks. Saute in a skillet with a tblsp olive oil, salt and pepper. Add 1/2 package of leanest ground turkey and 2 smashed garlic cloves. Let the meat cook. Add 1 can of organic tomato sauce and 3/4 cup BBQ sauce. Season with 1 tsp smoked paprika and 1/2 tsp Ancho chili powder. Taste it once the turkey is all the way cooked. If it's not sweet enough to your liking, add 1 tblsp brown sugar and a bit more salt and pepper. I also added a chopped patty pan squash to mine because I have so many of them in the garden. 

Serve on whole wheat burger buns. Yummy!
