As far as I can tell, this came from the University of Nebraska, Lincoln. By making your own seasoning mix, you control the sodium, along with the rest(which chili powder,ketchup, etc. you prefer). By using salt-free ketchup, you can eliminate the salt and still serve a tasty Sloppy Joe.

Time 30m

Yield 4 Sandwiches, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb lean ground turkey
2/3 cup onion
1/2 cup green pepper
2 jalapeno peppers
1 cup no-salt-added ketchup
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon mustard powder
1/4 teaspoon salt substitute
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Remove seeds from jalapeno peppers and dice.
  • Dice onion and green pepper.
  • Sauté onion, jalapenos and green pepper in EVO then set aside.
  • Cook ground turkey crumbling into little pieces.
  • Drain and return to pan.
  • Over med-high heat add all of the ingredients into the pan.
  • Stir mixture for 3-5 minute.
  • Lower heat to low and simmer for 5-10 min to fuse flavors.
  • Serve on either crusty rolls or hamburger buns.
  • Leave out the jalapeno if you don't like it hot. If you do throw in 2 more.
  • Additions: Try adding diced tomatoes or olives and top with cheese if you so desire.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of ground meats. You can use all beef, all pork, or a combination of both. Ground chicken or turkey can also be used, but they will be less flavorful.
  • Drain the fat from the meat. This will help to reduce the amount of grease in the sloppy joes.
  • Use a flavorful sauce. The sauce is what really makes the sloppy joes, so be sure to use one that you like. You can use a store-bought sauce or make your own.
  • Add some vegetables. Vegetables will add nutrients and flavor to the sloppy joes. Some good options include onions, peppers, and celery.
  • Serve on a bun or bread. Sloppy joes are traditionally served on a bun, but you can also serve them on bread or even rice.

No-salt sloppy joes are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a casual weekend lunch.
