  1. I have been using this recipe for 50 years. The only difference is that I try to use fresh tomatoes (blanched and diced). If you can boil water (for blanching) and brown hamburger, you can make this come out good every time. Truth is that I use tomatoes with skin some of the time and canned diced tomatoes too. It's a very forgiving recipe.<br/>Adjust the spices to your liking. My elementary school (in the '60's) made sloppy joe's but they always added some spice that had a weird aftertaste. This recipe is better.
     
  2. This is the recipe we have used at our house for over 40 years, though I add a tsp of mustard, a tblsp of catsup and a couple shakes of chili powder....awesome!

<p>I am a great grandmother, love to cook and bake, and love cooking with wine. I like to try new recipes, and enjoy sharing the kitchen with my husband, who has been cooking about 2 years.I love bread making, and have a?43 year old sourdough starter.I used to be an stna in home health care til I fell. My pet peeve is stupid commercials which assume all us public people are also stupid, and I especially don't like that gyco(may be spelled wrong) lizard. I'd love to step on him.</p>
