❤️WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE

If you have been around for a while, you know we love our sloppy joe recipe. It has wonderful reviews and it’s so easy to make. We love switching things up and enjoying sloppy joes on Texas Toast is a great change and it’s absolutely delicious! Something about the garlic of the bread, plus the texture paired with the sweetness of the sloppy joes is just the perfect combination.

🥣SWAPS

We used the garlic Texas Toast in this recipe but you can easily switch it up. The five cheese version I am sure would be fantastic. You can also make your own bread and just toast it! This Garlic Parmesan bread from our other website would be delicious.

🍽️APPETIZER OR DINNER?

These can be made as an appetizer or as dinner. If you want to make them for an appetizer, you can just cut the bread in half or quarter it and make bite size bites.

❓CAN I CUT THIS IN HALF?

You can easily cut the sloppy joe recipe in half and only use a few slices of bread. Just make the amount you want, that is why this recipe is versatile. If you want to make the whole recipe for sloppy joes, you can easily store it in the refrigerator, get it out the next night and make two more open face sandwiches. When we made this recipe, we only made 4 and reheated the meat mixture and made 4 more the next night.

HEALTHY HACKS

You can substitute ground beef for ground turkey or ground chicken, replace the brown sugar with honey, or use sugar-free ketchup if you prefer.

STORING, REHEATING & SERVING SIZE

The meat mixture can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. We reheat it in the microwave, and this meat mixture is enough for 8 small slices of Texas toast, or around 4 servings.
