Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes

The sloppy joe has a new twist! My Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joe is filled with tender ground beef, peppers, onion, steak sauce, and seasoning. Topped with a creamy and rich cheese sauce and served on a toasted bun makes a new family favorite! This sandwich is perfect for the weeknight because many of the ingredients are likely already in your pantry!

March 18th is National Sloppy Joe Day and I am celebrating with this delicious and unique take on one of my favorite weeknight sandwiches! I love easy meals that I have most of the ingredients on hand because it makes my hectic nights a lot more manageable. Plus, anytime that I can use pantry items versus a last minute run to the store is a big win in my book.

These sandwiches are great because it is a breeze to make the meat- just add the meat, peppers, onions, and a few extras to the pan and I am done. The cheese sauce is really thick and packed with rich flavor that captures the flavors of the famous cheesesteak sandwich!

Celebrating National Sloppy Joe Day!
