FALL VEGETABLE SLOPPY JOES
I make this dish in the fall and sneak grated vegetables into the sloppy joe mixture. It's especially handy when children don't like to eat their vegetables! Just walk away until the end of the day and let the slow cooker do all the work. Also delicious: Top the filling with a little shredded cheese before serving. -Nancy Heishman, Las Vegas, Nevada
