Ground Turkey Sloppy Joe's
Sloppy Joes are such a comfort food for me. I go through phases where I just craveeee them! Using ground turkey is a leaner option, and still tastes super yummy! Great for a comforting meal on a rainy day eaten from a sweet potato, OR a summer time meal eaten on a bun, and paired with some corn on the cob and a green salad!
