Sloppy Toms

Sloppy Joes, made with ground beef, are a classic go-to recipe for family dinners. This is a much healthier version of the classic. I actually (don't tell my mom) prefer the flavor of the turkey version to the beef version. The sauce is sweet, spicy, and tangy all at once. Plus, this is so quick, you can have dinner ready in a flash.


Sloppy Toms
1 Tbsp olive oil
1/2 c diced onion
1.2 lb lean ground turkey
1 3/4 c ketchup
1/4 c mustard
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
2 packets Splenda
2 Tbsp tomato paste
1 Tbsp red wine vinegar
1 pkg whole grain buns

Warm the oil over medium-high heat and saute onions intil translucent. Add ground turkey and cook until brown, breaking up big pieces (about 10 minutes). Add the remaining ingredients except the red wine vinegar, and then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Finish by adding the red wine vinegar just before serving on your favorite whole grain buns. Serves 4.
