Simple Sloppy Joe Casserole

Friday, May 17, 2024
If you're a family of sloppy joe lovers  (which is a popular ground beef sandwich) with delicious saucy meat on a bun, this casserole with the addition of pasta will be a new favorite in your home.

This casserole is full of ground beef mixed with sloppy joe-style sauce one of the best-tasting hearty meals on the planet.

We've also taken it a step further and topped it with shredded sharp cheddar cheese then broiled the top and all I can say is the kids go wild over this whenever I make it.

If there happened to be any leftovers, we even came up with alternative meals and added some black beans the next day for a whole new meal.
