Hey Victoria! What's For Supper? Just the Best Sloppy Joes Ever ~ Mmm!

I used to buy Sloppy Joe Sauce from a can.  After trying this recipe, I will never do that again!  Made with ingredients that most of us already have in the pantry, these are bold and tasty.  We have them at least once a week and it is easy to freeze for a quick meal on a hectic night.  This recipe is Gluton-free (with the exception that I use regular hamburger buns instead of Gluten-free buns and of course add cheese.).

1 tablespoon brown sugar

2 teaspoons cider vinegar

Cooking Directions:

1. In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef, onion, and green pepper in oil, breaking the meat up with a fork.
