Sloppy Joes with Chipotle in Adobo


Ok, everyone remembers Sloppy Joes right?? The kind our parents used to make(out of a can). Yeah, these aren't those. I promise!! LOL! These are super easy, quick and delicious!! I adapted this from a Rachael Ray recipe. I also like to add a little beer while adding the veggies in. Happy Friday y'all!!



Sloppy Joes w/Chipotle in Adobo:
4 servings

2TB olive oil
1lb ground sirloin, or whatever meat you like
1 large onion, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 chipotle in adobo, minced with 2TB of sauce. (You can find in the Latin section, chop and mix the rest and put in a baggie in the freezer for later.)
2TB brown sugar
2TB Worcestershire sauce
1 can tomato sauce (8oz)
4 rolls, or buns
1 avocado, sliced (optional)
salt and pepper to taste

Put the oil in a large skillet, over medium heat. Add in the beef and brown. Cook for about 4-5 minutes. Add in your bell pepper, onion, garlic, the chipotle and the adobo sauce. Saute for another 4 minutes, until the veggies start to soften. In a small bowl, mix the tomato sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and brown sugar. Add the sauce to the meat. Mix well, season with salt and pepper, bring to a boil then reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until thickened. Serve on the rolls, with slices of avocado.
