Introduction

I'm a college student who needs quick and easy recipes. This is just something I threw together with what I had when I was craving sloppy joes and didn't have the ingredients for a recipe I had looked up. It's unconventional, doesn't have that meaty texture and may not be your thing BUT it filled me up and satisfied my craving. I'm a college student who needs quick and easy recipes.

Ingredients

    ***You need BUNS (I used toast to avoid going to the store or spending money), which isn't included in the nutrituion info. You could eat it by itself, but then it isn't really a sandwhich.

    1 cup shredded potatoes
    1 tbsp vegetable oil
    1/2 cup boiling water
    1/2 tomato sauce or puree (I used ragu and it tasted just fine)
    1/3 tsp soy sauce
    1 tsp yellow mustard
    1/3 chili powder (or to taste)
    1 tsp relish (not the sweet stuff)
    black pepper (to taste)

Directions

Coat skillet with vegetable oil and heat on medium for a few minutes

Mix all the ingredients in a bowl or skip to the next step

Put all ingredients in the skillet and cook for 10-12 minutes on med-hi, stirring occasionally

Serve immediately on a warm bun or toast

Serves two, or use both servings to make one big sloppy joe
I like mine on the smaller side and I THINK one serving is about a half a cup or two thirds of a cup, I didn't measure the final though
