Texas Toast Sloppy Joes – Super Easy Recipes for Crave-Worthy Comfort
Let’s be honest, we’ve all had those nights where cooking a full-blown meal feels about as doable as running a marathon. That’s where this Texas Toast Sloppy Joes recipe comes in swinging—no medals, just melty cheese and saucy meat piled high on garlicky toast. It’s one of those Super Easy Recipes that’s so low effort, I could make it while catching up on my favorite true crime podcast (yes, I have).
And while it might not qualify as one of those Super Low Calorie Recipes, it *is* satisfying enough to silence a hangry crowd. Serve it with some Healthy Tea Recipes or experiment with Homemade tea recipes on the side (I like mine with mint and honey), and you’ve got a dinner that feels like a hug in sandwich form.
I love making this when I want something quick, comforting, and messy—in the best way. If you’re into Easy Healthy Sweet Snacks, Sweet Desserts, or browsing Hot Tea Recipes while dinner bakes, you’re in the right place. Just don’t forget the napkins—you’ll need ‘em.
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tbsp yellow mustard
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 8 slices frozen Texas toast with garlic butter
Instructions
- Preheat your oven according to the Texas toast package instructions. (Trust me, don’t skip this—it matters.)
- Place the toast slices on a baking sheet and bake until golden, flipping halfway if needed.
- Meanwhile, in a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef with the chopped onion. Drain the grease if you're not into extra shine.
- Add ketchup, brown sugar, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Stir it all together and let it simmer until thick and glossy.
- Scoop that sloppy goodness onto your toasted bread, top with shredded cheese, and pop them back in the oven just long enough to melt everything together.
- Serve immediately—preferably with a side of napkins and zero judgment for seconds (or thirds).
