Sloppy Joes

This is one of Connor's favorite meals.  He's asked me to put it the blog so that he'll have it one day.  My hope is to put together a cookbook to share with my kids when they're older, so I'm wanting to be sure to post their favorite recipes.

Let's Get Crafty!
We like to have ours on toasted hamburger buns.  If you do too - Start the oven to preheating to a low broil as you start to brown the hamburger.

Brown and drain off any remaining fat:
1lb hamburger
1 small onion, diced

Add to the hamburger and stir to combine:
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
1/3 cup of ketchup
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2-3 teaspoons of Worcestershire sauce
Add 1/2-3/4 cup of water

Simmer for 15-20 mins.  Taste before serving and add salt or more ketchup as needed.  

While this is simmering you can butter the hamburger buns and sprinkle them with garlic powder.  Then pop the on a baking tray and into the oven.  They generally take just a few minutes to lightly brown - so you'll want to keep an eye on them.

Thanks for stopping by!  Hope you have a great day.
