Sloppy Joes
1 pound lean ground beef
¼ cup chopped onion
¼ cup chopped green bell pepper
½ teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard
¾ cup ketchup
1 Tablespoon brown sugar
salt to taste
ground black pepper to taste
In a medium skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef, onion, and green pepper; drain off liquids.
Stir in the garlic powder, mustard, ketchup, and brown sugar; mix thoroughly. Reduce heat, and simmer for 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Notes:
- I doubled this recipe for my family of six.
- I like to brown my ground beef before I freeze it, then I just defrost it in the microwave when I need it.
- I sauted my onions and peppers in some olive oil and then added them to the defrosted beef.
- I also used frozen chopped onions and green peppers which made this a super easy and fast meal to prepare.
