Easy Sloppy Joes

Submitted by CarrolJ

"Almost every Sloppy Joe recipe or premade sauce has green peppers as a ingredient. My grown DS detests green peppers and won't touch anything with it in it. I created this flavorful recipe with him in mind. But I think that even those folks who like green peppers would like this version."

This was a very easy quick and great tasting recipe. I was in a hurry and used a little bit of onion soup mix instead of onions. I will use this recipe many times. Thank you!

Nice taste to these sloppy joes. I did not add the msg though. DH enjoyed and he is a bit picky.
