Chunky Sloppy Joes

Adding veggies to our protein is a great way to fill out and stretch our meals without going over our
limits. We've made traditional sloppy joes lighter in this kid-friendly ground beef recipe.

Ingredients Serves: 8 Cooking Time: 15 minutes

1 pound lean ground beef

1 small zucchini, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
1 small tomato, chopped
2 cups light spaghetti sauce
8 hamburger buns, split

Directions
1. In a large skillet, brown ground beef, zucchini, and onion over medium-high heat 10 to 12
minutes, or until beef is no longer pink and zucchini is tender.

2. Reduce heat to medium-low and stir in tomato and spaghetti sauce. Cook an additional 4 to 5
minutes, or until heated through.

3. Spoon over bottom halves of buns, cover with bun tops, and serve immediately.
