Carma Mangum’s sloppy Joe’s


This is my grandma's recipe.  I absolutely love it!  Hope you enjoy all the yummy veggies hidden inside!  Tastes great as leftovers as well. 

Ingredients:
1 lb. ground beef or turkey
1/4 green bell pepper chopped
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup grated carrot
2/3 cup catsup or 1 8 oz. can tomato sauce
3 T. mustard
1 T. vinegar
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 t. worcestershire sauce
sea salt and fresh ground pepper to taste
serve on whole wheat buns (I often use only the bottom bun and a huge piece of lettuce for the top to make it even more nutritious!)
optional toppings might include: lettuce, tomato, avacodo, etc.  
Directions:
Brown the meat.  Add everything else and simmer for 30 minutes.  Serve on top of whole wheat buns. Enjoy:)
