Sloppy Joe bowls
Sloppy Joe bowls
Sloppy Joes are an American classic – lip-smacking minced beef served in a burger bun. Here, we've turned the idea into something heartier that you can eat in a bowl using nachos to scoop. If you prefer, you can serve this with rice; in the traditional burger buns, or in wraps
