The sloppy joe mixture can be made 24 hours in advance and refrigerated until needed. Microwave it to warm before placing on top of the garlic bread.

Ingredients

• Ground Beef– I use 85 to 90% lean ground beef. Ground turkey or ground chicken can be substituted. Make it vegetarian by using Beyond Meat.
• Onion– sweet, yellow, or white work well.
• Ketchup– works great as a base for sloppy joes.
• Dijon Mustard– adds a little tang. Spicy mustard or yellow mustard can be used instead.
• Light Brown Sugar– adds some sweetness. Dark brown sugar can be used instead.
• Worcestershire Sauce– adds saltiness and flavor. Can use soy sauce as a subsitute.
• Garlic Powder– 1 medium minced garlic clove can be substituted.
• Chili Powder
• Black Pepper
• Texas Toast Garlic Bread– Texas Toast is thick and sturdy and holds up well with sloppy joe mixture piled on top.
• Mozzarella Cheese– can substitute with Colby Jack or Pepper Jack.
