Notes
- *Nutrition information is approximate and was calculated using an online nutrition calculator.
- I'm usually a purist when it comes to good 'ol sloppy joes and don't top them with anything, but a few pickled jalapenos, a nice slice of cheddar, or a scoopful of coleslaw are great additions to this sandwich if you can't resist.
- If you enjoy bell pepper, add it in! Same goes for onions, mushrooms, lentils, etc.
- Sloppy Joes may make excellent sandwiches, but they also can be used so much more creatively as a baked potato topping or over fries or nachos.
