Everyone needs a meal in their arsenal that comes together quickly and appeases the masses (i.e. hangry children :D). These Sloppy Joes are that meal in my household! Double the recipe and freeze half or make taco salads the next day. 🌮🥙 These are a great “take them a meal” idea as well.
If you want to make these extra special, I suggest making homemade hamburger buns. They are THE BEST!
