Veggie-Loaded Sloppy Joes
Add some veggies to make this classic a little bit healthier and tastier.
Ingredients
- Vegetable oil cooking spray
- 1 pound extra-lean ground beef
- 1 small green bell pepper, diced
- 1 small red bell pepper, diced
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- ¾ cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons mustard
- 6 whole-grain or mixed-grain sandwich buns
- 1 small white or red onion, sliced (optional)
Directions
Spray a medium-sized skillet with cooking spray. Combine ground beef, diced peppers and onion in the skillet. Cook on medium heat until the beef is thoroughly cooked, about 10 minutes.

If desired, top with a slice of sweet onion, lettuce leaf and/or tomato slice.
