Yes, Sloppy Joes is on the menu! And you know what? They are darn good — and go completely old school and pull out the tator tots. Your kids will love it as much as you.

1 lb. ground beef
1/2 onion, diced
2 cloves of garlic, minced
Salt & Pepper
Sloppy Joe Seasoning
1/2 c. water
1 can (6 oz) tomato paste
Tobasco Sauce

In pan, mix onion, garlic and meat. Cook until meat is brown and crumbly. Add seasonings, tomato paste and water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes.

Best when served on homemade buns or fresh from the oven at the store buns!

1 tsp. red pepper flakes
Salt & Pepper
1 tsp. cornstarch
1/2 tsp. minced garlic
1/4 tsp. dry mustard
1/4 tsp. celery seed
1/4 tsp. chili powder

Saves nicely, use snack size Ziploc bags.
