A comforting dish that combines savory Sloppy Joe beef with delicious garlic bread and melted cheese.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb lean ground beef (85-90%)
  • 1 diced onion
  • 1 diced green bell pepper
  • 1 cup tomato sauce
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp yellow mustard
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 baguette or Italian loaf
  • 1/2 cup softened butter
  • 4 cloves minced fresh garlic
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Prepare the garlic bread by slicing a baguette or Italian loaf lengthwise. In a small bowl, mix the softened butter with the minced fresh garlic and dried parsley. Spread this garlic butter generously over the cut sides of your bread.
  3. Toast the bread on a baking sheet, butter-side up, for 5-7 minutes until lightly toasted and fragrant.
  4. Brown the beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up until fully browned, then drain excess grease.
  5. Sauté the diced onion and green bell pepper in the skillet for 5-7 minutes until softened.
  6. Create the Sloppy Joe mixture by stirring in the tomato sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, yellow mustard, and Worcestershire sauce, then simmer for 10-15 minutes.
  7. Assemble the garlic bread by spooning the Sloppy Joe filling over the toasted garlic bread halves.
  8. Add shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese over the Sloppy Joe mixture.
  9. Bake the assembled garlic bread for 8-12 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  10. Let it rest for a minute or two before serving.
  11. Serve cut into pieces or whole and enjoy with fresh parsley if desired.
