Sloppy Joe's

Maybe when you think of Sloppy Joe's you think of those cans of manwich on the shelves at your local supermarket. I hope you also think of all kinds of additives and MSG -YUMM! So.. I have a solution, courtesy of the mid-west.

So now you've made your ketchup and mustard from scratch and you don't wanna just look at it sitting in the fridge, do you?

2 Tsp of Shortening 
1 Large chopped Onion
1 Large chopped Green Pepper
1.5 Lb of ground Beef or Turkey (I used turkey)
1 Cup of Ketchup (I used my homemade recipe)
4 Tbsp of Mustard (I used my homemade recipe)
1/4 Cup of Vinegar 
1/2 Tsp of Sugar (I used Stevia)
1 Tbsp of Brown Sugar

In a fry pan, brown meat with onion and green pepper. Drain and put in a sauce pan. Over medium heat add the rest of the ingredients. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes.

ENJOY!
