Lauren's Sloppy Joes

Earlier this week, I was craving my sister, Lauren's, delicious sloppy joes recipe. She uses red bell peppers and bacon which give the sandwich mix so much flavor!

To enjoy this yummy summer meal, you'll need:

1 lb. of ground beef

1 red bell pepper

1 onion

3 cloves of garlic

8 strips of bacon

1/2 cup of Worcestershire sauce

1.5 cups ketchup

1. To begin, dice the onion, garlic, and red bell pepper and sauté the three in olive oil until the onion is translucent.

2. Cook the bacon in a separate pan and cut into squares.

3. Add the ground beef to the onion, garlic, and red bell peppers until brown.

4. Add the bacon to the ground beef and vegetable mixture.

5. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce and ketchup.

6. Serve on bread or chips and enjoy!

For dessert, try a slice of strawberry rhubarb pie and cookie butter ice cream from Trader Joe's (obsessed).

I'm glad the missionaries enjoyed the sloppy joes with Kenny, Eliza, and I!
