Beany Sloppy Joes
By Easy Recipe Collection
Published:
Make the healthiest sloppy joes ever by making them filling and nutritious with lots of fiber filled beans - and NO meat.
Ingredients
1 (15 oz) can black eyed peas (rinsed and drained)
1 (15 oz) can kidney beans (rinsed and drained)
1-1/2 cup store bought marinara sauce
1/2 cup frozen cut green beans
1/2 cup chopped green pepper
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
1-1/2 teaspoons chili powder
Whole wheat hamburger buns
Directions
In large skillet, combine black-eyed peas, kidney beans, store-bought marinara sauce, frozen cut green beans and chopped green bell pepper, Worcestershire sauce, red-wine vinegar and chili powder; mix well.
Bring to boil on medium high heat. Reduce heat to low, partially cover and simmer 12 minutes or until peppers are tender.
Spoon onto toasted whole-wheat hamburger buns.
Serving Suggestions: Accompany the sandwiches with frozen hash browns and a mixed green salad.
Variation: Sloppy Jacques
In a large non-stick skillet, cook one-pound lean ground round for five or six minutes or until no longer pink; drain. Stir in 2-tablespoons flour; mix well. Stir in one can (10-1/2 ounces) condensed French onion soup. Cook and stir over medium heat until bubbly. Continue cooking and stirring two more minutes or until sauce thickens. Spoon onto toasted hamburger buns.
Notable Note:
Beans come in an amazing array of colors, shapes, and flavors. They can be traditionally or quickly prepared, depending on your preference.
Canned beans are ready to use; just open and pour. Frozen beans (black-eyed peas, Great Northern, soy, and kidney beans in the frozen food section of the grocery) need a very short amount of cooking time.
