Sloppy Joe on Garlic Bread
Ingredients:
1 frozen garlic bread loaf (10 ounces), thawed
1 pound lean ground beef
½ cup chopped onion
2 cups shredded cheese (Colby jack recommended)
1 can (15-ounce) sloppy Joe sauce
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Salt and pepper, tailored to your palate
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to a welcoming 375°F (190°C).
In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat, gently sautéing the chopped onion until it softens into translucence.
Welcome the ground beef into the skillet, cooking until it adopts a rich brown hue. Drain any excess fat, if desired.
Enrobe the beef with the sloppy Joe sauce, a sprinkle of salt, and a dash of pepper, allowing it to simmer gently, infusing the flavors together.
Meanwhile, gently part the thawed garlic bread loaf into two halves, placing them with open arms onto a baking sheet.
Tenderly ladle the sloppy Joe mixture across each garlic bread half, finishing with a generous sprinkle of shredded cheese.
Bake in your prewarmed oven for 15 minutes, or until the cheese melts into a bubbling golden blanket.
Allow it a moment to rest upon exiting the oven, then slice and serve warm, basking in each flavorful bite.
