Sloppy Joe Mixture
- 1 pound ground beef
- ¾ cup ketchup
- 1 teaspoon mustard
- 1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of mushroom soup
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Toppings
- Potato chips
- Dill pickles
Serving
- Cook the Ground Beef: In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until it is no longer pink, breaking it apart as it cooks. Once cooked thoroughly, drain the excess fat from the skillet.
- Mix in Sauces and Soup: Stir in the ketchup, mustard, and cream of mushroom soup with the cooked beef. This combination creates a creamy, tangy sauce that coats the beef perfectly.
- Simmer the Mixture: Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer gently for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Season with salt and pepper according to your taste preferences.
- Assemble the Sloppy Joes: Spoon the beef mixture onto buns, and top each sandwich with potato chips and dill pickles to add a delightful crunch and tangy contrast.
Notes
- For a leaner option, use ground turkey or lean ground beef.
- Adjust the seasoning to taste, adding more mustard or ketchup if you prefer a tangier flavor.
- Potato chips add crunch but can be substituted with coleslaw or crunchy lettuce for a different texture.
- This recipe can be made ahead and reheated gently on the stovetop or microwave.
- Serve immediately after assembling to keep the chips from becoming soggy.
