Ingredients
1
pound
lean ground beef
½
cup
onion
finely chopped
15
ounces
sloppy joe sauce
or 1 batch homemade sauce
6
pieces
frozen Texas toast
1
cup
mozzarella cheese
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425°F.
In a skillet, cook beef and onion until no pink remains. Drain fat.
Add sloppy joe sauce and simmer 5-7 minutes.
Place frozen Texas toast slices on a large baking sheet. Bake in oven for about 5 minutes or until golden.
Divide the sloppy joe mixture over the toasted bread and top with cheese.
Bake 5 minutes more or until the cheese is melted.
Notes
Alternately, after cheese is added to the sloppy joe mixture, broil for 1 minute until cheese is melted.
Try rubbing a clove of garlic over the baked bread before adding the sloppy joe mixture for a delicious flavor.
Refrigerate leftover sloppy joe mixture separate from the toast.
Reheat sloppy joe mixture on the stovetop and repeat from step 4 for a quick lunch or dinner.
