Introduction

Yummy homemade sloppy Joe sauce - made with Ground Turkey. The original recipe is from the better baby food cookbook and calls for ground beef. I just made the switch to ground turkey to reduce the fat content. It's yummy either way. Yummy homemade sloppy Joe sauce - made with Ground Turkey.

    Very Good
    we didn't realize that it had tomatoes in it because that were not listed. Even without the tomatoes it has a very good / light flavor. We will diffently make it again. - 3/20/10

    Oops I see I forgot to add tomatoes to the ingredient list. I will edit and do so. Sorry about that.
