Notes
Feel free to customize your sloppy joes with additional toppings such as sautéed mushrooms, jalapeños, or hot sauce for extra flavor.
For a lighter version, you can substitute ground turkey or chicken for the ground beef.
Make sure the buns are toasted for an added crunch and to prevent them from becoming soggy.
