Healthy Turkey Sloppy Joes

Healthy turkey sloppy joes with an easy homemade sauce made with ingredients you probably already have in your cupboard. Everyone loves this recipe because it can also be made in the slow cooker and doubled… or tripled for a crowd. Truth be told, Sloppy Joe’s can come to the rescue for an easy 30-minute meal that literally anyone can make.

Ingredients :
  • 3 slices Jalapeno
  • 1/2 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
  • 4 sprouted/whole grain or gluten-free hamburger buns
  • 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp. yellow mustard
  • 1/2 tsp. red wine vinegar
  • 1/2 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 cup spicy low sugar BBQ sauce
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 red bell pepper, finely diced
  • 1 small white onion, diced
  • 1 tsp. olive oil
  • 1 pound 94% lean ground turkey
Directions :
  1. Add olive oil to a medium skillet and place over medium-high heat. Add in the garlic, white onion, and bell pepper; saute for 5 minutes or until onion is translucent. Transfer ingredients to a small bowl.
  2. Next, add ground turkey to the skillet and season with salt and pepper; break up the meat as it cooks. Once the turkey is cooked, add the onion/bell pepper mixture back in.
  3. Then add in ketchup, BBQ sauce, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, and mustard. If you like a little heat, add in cayenne pepper. Stir well to combine and bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and cook for 10 minutes longer. If the sauce looks too thick, add in a tablespoon of water.
  4. Next, add cheese on top of meat mixture, cover with a lid and let the cheese melt for 2 minutes (or until melted). Transfer meat onto hamburger buns and top with jalapeno slices.
  5. Serve on hamburger buns with pepper jack cheese.
