Homemade Sloppy Joe’s

Homemade Sloppy Joe’s Recipe

I made Homemade Sloppy Joe’s for the very first time, proving wrong my misperception that were unhealthy.  By using fresh ingredients like red, orange and yellow bell peppers along with fresh celery and lean ground beef, my conscious was clear as I served up this family dinner classic that takes only minutes to prepare.
