sloppy joe's

Yummy!!!! This recipe has become a favorite. You must try! 2 out of 3 kids approve, Hayden doesn't like hamburger meat.

What you will need:

2 Tablespoon of butter (I think i use 3)
3 whole carrots, shredded
1 small onion, or half of a large one, diced (small in my home)
2-3 cloves of garlic, chopped fine
1 cup water
1 lb lean ground beef
 2 tablespoons brown mustard (i use spicy brown mustard store brand)
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoon chili powder

Directions:

In a frying pan take butter, carrots, onion and garlic. cook down till tender/soft (my kids don't like them to be crunchy. In another frying pan cook up the ground beef till no long pink, drain off. Now add carrots, onion garlic and all other ingredients. cook on medium till bubbles and then simmer for about 10-15 minuets.

ENJOY!!!
