Sloppy Joe Recipe (Healthier)

Sloppy Joes
1 1/4 lb lean ground turkey
1/2 cup chopped onions
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp all purpose flour
1/4 tsp pepper
1 cup ketchup
1 tbsp prepared mustard
1 tbsp bbq sauce (I'm a fan of Jack Daniel's bbq sauce!)
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
6 hamburger buns, split

Using the brands I use for my family.....1 sandwich = 315 calories, 8 gm fat (73 cal are from fat)

In a large nonstick skillet, cook the turkey and onion over medium heat until turkey is no longer pink; drain if necessary. Add garlic; cook for 1-2 min. or until tender.

Stir in the sugar, flour and pepper. Add the ketchup, mustard, bbq sauce and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 5-10 min. or until heated through. Serve on buns. Yield: 6 servings
