Notes
- Use good quality ground beef — Use grass-fed ground beef for a delicious and healthy dish. Grass-fed beef contains a lower quantity of fats, especially saturated fats, than grain-fed beef, which will result in a healthier and more flavorful dish.
- Drain the excess fat — After browning the ground beef, eliminate any excess fat by draining it.
- Add toppings — Serve your Sloppy Joe with fresh toppings such as shredded cheddar cheese, diced onions, or chopped cilantro.
