Some recipes just scream, “Summer is coming!” This clean eating sloppy Joe’s recipe, for example…
All the excitement of warm, sunny days, big blue beaches, chlorinated swimming pools and the smells of coconut suntan lotion come flooding back to our memory banks after a long winter has finally ended. A time when we bring out the flip-flops, the tank tops and the BBQ’s, and let the fun times begin.
That’s what this recipe did for me on the cold, wintery night I made it. Good thing I had my memories to warm me or I might have darn well froze to death!
Yes, I’m a California girl. So all you have to do is hold an ice cube within 10 feet of me and I swear I’m going to die from hypothermia, but still.
I was freezing.
I swear.
Plus, this was an easy dish for my frozen fingers to make, and I got to stand next to a warm stove while I was doing all that day dreaming. So it was a win-win.

Made this last night and even the hubby loved it!!! I added some pinto beans in since I did not have enough ground turkey, and it was just right. I was skeptical with so few ingredients, I thought it would be bland but it was great!!! Can not believe I ever ate the unclean, canned version of this before – never again 🙂
Samantha – Fantastic!! 😀 I’m so happy you liked it!
I have made this recipe twice and LOVE it (so does the family)!!! I am surprised how long the clean ketchup I made with your recipe has lasted without spoiling! It’s been 3 weeks and still smells fine.
Tina – That’s great!! So glad you’re enjoying everything! 😀
