These sloppy joes were a little too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of brown sugar next time.

I'm not a fan of cabbage, but I still thought these sloppy joes were delicious. The cabbage added a nice crunch and texture.

I love that this recipe uses ground turkey instead of beef. It's a healthier option and it still tastes great.

I've made sloppy joes many times before, but this recipe is by far the best. The addition of the cabbage and bell pepper gives them a unique and delicious flavor.
