I made these low-cal turkey joes last night and Casey loved them. I have never really been a huge fan of sloppy joes so I didn't know how they were supposed to taste but he said the flavors turned out similar to manwich. I adapted this recipe from Weight Watchers and added a lot of spice to give it a kick. This is a great quick and easy recipe!
Ingredients:
1 lb ground turkey
1 small onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 Serrano pepper, minced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 cup barbecue sauce (I like Stubb's Spicy BBQ Sauce)
8 oz canned tomato sauce
1 tbsp worcestershire sauce
1 tsp dry mustard
1 tsp cayenne pepper, or more to taste
1 tsp chili pepper, or more to taste
Salt, to taste
4 hamburger type rolls, toasted
Directions:
Brown the turkey in a pan until cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Add onion, peppers, and garlic, and cook until softened, about 2-3 minutes. Add barbecue, tomato and worcestershire sauces, and remaining spices, stir to combine and heat over medium heat until heated through, about 5 minutes. Serve over toasted hamburger rolls.
Points: 7
