We all like sloppy joes, but I was tired of the usual recipe, so when I saw this one I had to try it. This was good and easy- perfect to throw together last minute. I tossed in a handful of roughly chopped water chestnuts and they added a nice crunch along with the green onions. I also added a light drizzle of sesame oil. There wasn't a speck left. Anything that all four of us agree on is in my recipe box to stay. Thanks!

Very nice. I also served on hollowed out French bread. Next time I would up the sauce ingredients, as it was a little dry. I ground my own turkey breast, maybe it really soake dup the sauce. The onions are a must. Will make it again, a fast, easy, cheap (if you have the ingredients) and very pretty sandwich.
