Sloppy Joes are a suppertime staple, but my friends always say this avocado slaw makes them seem brand new. The creamy, tangy slaw tastes perfect with the savory sandwich filling. Try themâyouâll agree! Ingredients:
1 pound ground turkey |
1 medium onion, chopped |
1 envelope sloppy joe mix |
1 can (6 ounces) tomato paste |
1-1/4 cups water |
slaw: |
1 medium ripe avocado, peeled and cubed |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
2 teaspoons lemon juice |
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
2-1/2 cups coleslaw mix |
6 hamburger buns, split |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, cook turkey and onion over medium heat 7-8 minutes or until turkey is no longer pink and onion is tender, breaking up turkey into crumbles; drain. 2. Stir in sloppy joe mix, tomato paste and water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, 8-10 minutes or until thickened, stirring occasionally. 3. Meanwhile, place avocado, oil, lemon juice, cumin, salt and pepper in a blender; cover and process until smooth. Transfer to a small bowl; stir in coleslaw mix. Spoon meat mixture onto bun bottoms and top with slaw. Replace tops. Yield: 6 servings. |
