About Homemade sloppy joe with ground turkey

Homemade Sloppy Joe with Ground Turkey is a lean twist on the classic American comfort food. Originating in the United States, this recipe swaps traditional ground beef for ground turkey, reducing saturated fat and calorie content while still delivering rich, savory flavors. The dish features lean ground turkey simmered in a tangy tomato-based sauce, often incorporating onions, garlic, ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and optional chili powder for added zest. Served on a whole-grain bun or alongside a salad, this version emphasizes balance and simplicity. Ground turkey provides high-quality protein with less fat, making it a heart-healthy choice, while the sauce contains ingredients that may include added sugar and sodium. Opting for reduced-sodium seasonings and whole, natural ingredients can enhance its nutritional benefits. Perfect for a quick weeknight meal, this sloppy joe offers a healthier take on a nostalgic classic.
