Sloppy Joes with Honey Whole Wheat Rolls

Love the way that just flows off the tongue!

We haven't had sloppy joes in a long time, I thought today was a good day to have them! Also, I've never followed a recipe to make them...but this time I did write things down to share with you. However, just kind of add stuff until you like how it tastes...that's pretty much what I do.

Here is my recipe for Sloppy Joes:
1lb ground beef
3 cloves garlic minced (or however many you would like to add)
1 medium onion chopped
2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon pepper
1-1 1/2 cups ketchup (if using regular ketchup, as opposed to no salt, decrease your salt)
2-3 cups water

Cook onions and garlic in pan with a little bit of olive oil.
Add in ground beef and cook until done. Drain off grease.
Add in ketchup and water. It should be rather soupy looking.
Reduce heat and simmer until the consistency you would like.
Flavor with additional salt, pepper, and garlic powder to your flavor.


Honey Whole Wheat Rolls
1 cup warm water (110-115*)
3 cups flour (I used a mix of 1 cup hi-gluten flour (such as Sir Lancelot) and 2 cups whole wheat flour and out bran)
1 tbsp honey
2 teaspoon dried milk
2 teaspoon yeast
2 teaspoon salt

Combine ingredients and either mix by hand or kneading hook. Place dough in lightly buttered bowl, allow to rise until slightly less than double.
Tear fistfuls of dough and knead into balls, slightly smaller than a tennis ball.
Place 2" apart in greased pan. Allow to rise again until double
Bake at 350* for 30 minutes...or until golden brown.

Split rolls in half, top with sloppy joe meat and your choice of shredded cheese (pepper jack is our choice) and serve!

ENJOY!
