These Sloppy Joes are messy, flavorful, and oh-so-satisfying. They’re perfect for a weeknight dinner or a casual get-together with friends. Plus, they come together in just a short time!

Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground beef (or turkey for a lighter option)
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1/2 cup green bell pepper, diced
- 1 cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon mustard
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Gluten-free hamburger buns
Instructions:
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef (or turkey) until browned. Make sure to break it up into small pieces as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.
- Add the diced onion and green bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 3-5 minutes.
- Stir in the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, mustard, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together until well combined.
- Reduce the heat and let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. This will allow all the flavors to meld together and create that delicious sloppy joe sauce.
- While the mixture is simmering, you can toast the gluten-free hamburger buns if desired. This adds a nice crunch to the final dish.
- Once the sloppy joe mixture is ready, spoon it generously onto the bottom half of each hamburger bun. Top with the other half of the bun.
- Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as potato chips, coleslaw, or a fresh salad.
