The perfect game day appetizer, snack idea or even meal! Quick, easy and crowd pleasing.
This easy recipe is made with just 5 simple ingredients: french bread, ground beef, sloppy joe sauce, cheese and diced onions. Bake in the oven, slice, and watch it disappear!
It’s obviously great for big appetites, which is why I like to make this for a football party or any gathering with cheese and meat lovers. It’s also a tasty snack for Sundays at home. Kids and adults love it!
This quick & easy snack is meaty, cheesy, and easy peasy.
You’re going to start by dicing the onion and sautéing it until soft. Add the ground beef and cook until no longer pink. Drain any excess grease, and then mix in the sloppy joe sauce.
Slice the french bread in half and place it on a baking sheet. Top with the ground beef mixture and cheese. Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Slice and serve! Yum.
There’s something about the Manwich brand of sloppy joe sauce that is absolutely delish. It’s the perfect blend of sweet and salty with a touch of vinegar.
These sloppy joe french bread slices are irresistible! I definitely ate more than my share.
