Recipe Review .."Zesty Sloppy Joe's" from Taste of Home Magazine

There was nothing like coming home from school on a cool fall afternoon to the aroma of Mom's Sloppy Joes simmering in a large pot on the stove. It was one of my favorite meals. I don't have my Mom's secret recipe, but I did find one that is nearly as good as Mom's in Taste of Home Magazine. With a chill in the air, I decided it was time to make a batch.

I studied the recipe.....(Makes 20-25 servings, so I halved it).....

Ingredients

• 4 pounds of ground beef
• 1 cup chopped onion
• 1 cup finely chopped green pepper
• 2 cans (10-3/4 ounces each) of condensed tomato soup, undiluted
• 1 can (15 ounces) thick and zesty tomato sauce (I used ketchup instead)
• 1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
• 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/4 cup ketchup
• 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon prepared mustard
• 1 tablespoon ground mustard
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon garlic salt
• 20 to 25 hamburger buns

Directions

• In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink. Add green pepper. Cook and stir for 5 minutes; drain. Add the next 10 ingredients; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Serve on buns. Yield: 20-25 servings.

I gathered my ingredients...

Quick and easy comfort food.
