1 lb ground turkey
1/4 onion, chopped
About 1/4-1/2 cup ketchup
About 2 Tbsp mustard
About 2 Tbsp brown sugar
About 1 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
1 small can tomato sauce
Directions: Cook ground turkey through, drain and return meat back to skillet. Add a couple of swirls of mustard, 3-4 really big squeezes of ketchup, 1 can tomto sauce, a couple dashes of worcestershire and a handful of brown sugar. Mix together and let simmer 10-15 minutes. As with all of my mom's recipes, there is nothing exact, everything is seasoned to taste.
Here's what I started with:
Here's how I did it:
#1 I browned the turkey and cooked it with the onions.
#2 I added a couple swirls of mustard and 3-4 big squeezes of ketchup.
#3 I added 1 can of tomato sauce.
#4 Some brown sugar, worcestershire sauce and salt/pepper.
The Finished Product:
Once again, my mom's recipes are the best to me! I love the tanginess of the mustard and I usually end up adding more mustard to my sandwich, as well. As I said above, there is no set recipe. If there is something you think might be missing, i.e. hot sauce, green peppers, dry mustard, just go ahead and add and taste.
I didn't eat my sloppy joe on a bun but rather with some iceberg lettuce as a wrap and it was yummy. Of course, this sauce can be used fr ground beef or pork, as well.
Hope you enjoy!
