“Not So Sloppy” Buffalo Joes Sliders w/ Baked Fries

Dinner Tonight: “Not So Sloppy” Buffalo Joes Sliders w/ Baked Fries






For Breakfast this morning something a little different, Wild Boar Bacon! I had ordered some from

SayersBrook Bison Ranch and just received my order yesterday afternoon. Couldn't wait to try it so I'm having it now. The slices were not as long as most Bacon Slices, but it made no difference. It fried up as normal Bacon and tasted great! Wild Boar Bacon has a richer taste and is leaner than Pork Bacon. Really enjoyed this and will have it again. Along with the Bacon I prepared some Simply Potatoes Shredded Hash Browns, toasted a slice of Healthy Life Whole Grain Bread, and my usual cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea.





After Breakfast did a few chores around the house and finished up a load of laundry for Mom. Then after Lunch I went out to the shed and pulled out the rest of the deck furniture and cleaned it up. Rain moved back in again, a high in the 60's. For dinner tonight I prepared “Not So Sloppy” Buffalo Joes Sliders w/ Baked Fries.











It’s Sloppy Joe Night tonight for dinner! A delicious and a super easy meal to make. To make the Sloppy Joes I used a 1 lb. package of Wild Idea Buffalo Ground Round, 1 jar of Hormel Not So Sloppy Joe Sauce, and Kroger Lite Wheat Buns. Using Buffalo, or Bison, instead of Beef will give your Sloppy Joe a deeper and richer flavor. Really looking forward to tonight's Dinner, been a while since I've had these!





Using a large skillet to brown the Buffalo in I seasoned it with Morton’s Salt Substitute, Ground

Black Pepper, and Roasted Ground Cumin. After the Buffalo was browned and no longer pink I added the jar of Not So Sloppy Joe Sauce stirring and making sure the Sauce and Buffalo was well mixed. Simmer until it’s warm, and served. I love the Hormel Not So Sloppy Joe Sauce. It’s a good thick sauce well seasoned with Spices, Onions, Green Peppers among other ingredients (70 calories and 15 carbs per serving). I served them this time on Kroger 100% Whole Wheat Sliders Mini Buns. Sloppy Joes make a perfect Slider! Another delicious dish using Wild Idea Buffalo.




For a side I baked some Alexia Organic Yukon Select Fries. Seasoned them with McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and Black Peppercorn Medley. Baked them at 425 degrees for 16 minutes. They bake up beautifully and seasoned just right, excellent Shoestring Fry! Plus they are only 120 calories and 15 net carbs. For Dessert/Snack later a bowl of Smart Pop - Pop Corn.











Hormel Not So Sloppy Joe Sauce

Richer and Thicker and Far From Ordinary

Not-So-Sloppy-Joe® sloppy joe sauce is as distinctive as its name. Not-So-Sloppy-Joe® sloppy joe sauce has a hint of barbecue flavor and is richer and thicker than other sloppy joe sauces.

Since its beginning in 1985, there’s been one very graphic way to show the thick and rich texture of Not-So-Sloppy-Joe® sloppy joe sauce: the “drip test.” When you hold up a sloppy joe made with Not-So-Sloppy-Joe® sloppy joe sauce, there are no drips. It’s that rich and thick.
