Sloppy Joe's

We had sloppy Joe's on Friday night and I went the simple route. I absolutely love Pioneer Woman's Sloppy Joe recipe, but didn't want to go all out. Therefore the simple route it was, hamburger with manwich, a half of an onion chopped and a green pepper, diced, served on whole wheat buns with fresh fruit and yummy oven fries. Simple and yummy for the whole family to enjoy.

Steak and Cheese Sandwiches

These are super yummy, easy quick sandwiches that were gobbled up by my girls. Because the sandwich itself has vegetables on it I just served it with some canned fruit.

Steak and Cheese Sandwiches:
2 pound beef sirloin, cut into thin 2 inch strips
1/2 t. salt
1 t. black pepper
1 t. paprika
1 t. chili powder
1 t. onion powder
1 t. garlic powder
1 t. dried thyme
1 t. dried basil
2 T. olive oil
1 onion sliced
1 green pepper, cut into strips
sliced provolone cheese
hoagie rolls, cut in half lengthwise

Place sliced meat in a large mixing bowl.

In a small mixing bowl mix all of your spices together.

Pour half of the spices over the meat, stir and pour on the rest of the spices, mix again.

Put oil in a large skillet and heat, add meat and cook until desired doneness. Remove meat from pan using slotted spoon to leave any yummy goodness in the pan.

Add the onions and green pepper to the oil and seasonings in the skillet and cook just until softened.

preheat oven to broil.

Place sliced hoagies on a baking sheet. Put meat on half of the hoagie bun, and top with onions green pepper and cheese.

Slide baking sheet into the oven and cook just until the cheese is melted and edges are slightly crisp.

And your ready to eat. I ate mine just like this and so did my girls, but my husband added some BBQ sauce.


YUM, hope you enjoy this as much as we did!
