OPEN FACE MEXICAN SLOPPY JOES OVER CORNBREAD



Open Face Mexican Sloppy Joes over Cornbread image

Another comfort food. Open face sloppy Joes on corn bread (with a few additions). It has a bit of a Mexican flare but still very mild. I also love to serve this with Mexican coleslaw, but the sloppy Joe's are great on their own. I even make this with ground turkey which has less fat, but that it is up to you. I like to serve over a spicy cornbread and top with some monterey jack cheese. It makes a great Saturday or Sunday dinner.

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 lb ground turkey
1/2 cup green pepper, diced
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 celery rib, diced
1 small onion, diced
14 1/2 ounces diced Mexican tomatoes
8 ounces tomato sauce
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 pinch sugar
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
salt

Steps:

  • Vegetables -- In a large saute pan, add the oil and bring to medium heat. Saute the celery, garlic, onion and green pepper until lightly sauteed.

  • Cornbread -- Mix the cornbread mix, the milk and eggs according to the box directions. Add the green chilies (lightly drained, I keep a little juice), seasoning and cheese. Bake according to directions. I like to use a 13x9" pan.

Tips:

  • Use a cast iron skillet for the cornbread to get a crispy crust and a moist interior.
  • Make sure the cornbread is cooked all the way through before adding the sloppy joe mixture. Otherwise, the cornbread will be soggy.
  • Use a good quality ground beef for the sloppy joes. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different toppings for the sloppy joes. Some popular options include cheese, bacon, and avocado.
  • Serve the sloppy joes on toasted cornbread with a side of fries or coleslaw.

Conclusion:

Cornbread sloppy joes are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. They are also a great option for potlucks and picnics. With a few simple ingredients, you can have a tasty and satisfying meal on the table in no time. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner idea, give cornbread sloppy joes a try.
