I am not a proprietor of fast-food chains (with the exception of Chick-fil-a) at all. In fact I think the last time I even had anything from McDonalds was December of 2018. I don’t love the idea of the unknown, greasy, mystery ingredients going into my body.

I know I don’t speak for everyone, not even those in my own household. In fact Mr. Boyfriend tells me quite regularly to let him live his best life as he speeds away from the Steak n Shake drive-thru with his milk shake in hand. But these sloppy joes really hit the spot, and my kid asks for them on the regular.

All in it should take you 20-25 minutes from prep to plate, this is a meal that I go to when we’re going from bus to dinner to after school activity all within an hour and a half.
