Sloppy Janes

Sloppy Janes

This is one of my all time favorite health foods.  It's so good that I have a hard time eating one serving.  It's full of flavor and SO easy to make.




Ingredients:
1 lb. raw extra-lean ground turkey
5 small light hamburger buns (I actually use the sandwich thins in the picture above for less carbies 100% whole grain/wheat)
1/2 cup chopped onions
1/2 cup chopped red bell peppers
1 small can of tomato paste
1 tbsp of sugar
1 tbsp. red wine vinegar
1 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp. dry steak seasoning blend

Directions: Spray a large pan with nonstick spray, and bring to medium-high heat. Add turkey to the pan with onion, green pepper, and red pepper, and steak seasoning. Spread the meat around in the pan to break it up a bit until cooked and DO NOT DRAIN JUICE.

Reduce heat to medium.

Add Worcestershire sauce and vinegar to the pan. Stir, and then continue to cook for 5 minutes.

Add tomato paste and sugar to the pan and stir well. Reduce heat to low, and cook the mixture for an additional 3-5 minutes.

Toast the buns, if desired.
