Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Lean ground turkey (93% lean or greater)
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 1 medium Green bell pepper, finely chopped
- 15 ounces Tomato sauce (no sugar added)
- 2 tablespoons Tomato paste (no sugar added)
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Brown sugar substitute (like Swerve or Truvia)
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 6 pieces Whole wheat hamburger buns
Instructions
In a large skillet, brown the ground turkey over medium heat until fully cooked. Break it into crumbles as it cooks. Drain any excess fat if necessary and transfer the turkey to your crock pot.
In the same skillet, sauté the chopped onion and green bell pepper over medium heat for about 5 minutes, or until they become tender. Add them to the crock pot with the turkey.
Add the tomato sauce, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar substitute, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and black pepper to the crock pot. Stir everything together until well combined.
Cover the crock pot with its lid and cook on low heat for 4 hours, stirring occasionally to make sure the flavors meld and nothing sticks to the sides.
After 4 hours, taste and adjust seasonings if needed. The mixture should be thick and flavorful.
To serve, spoon the sloppy joe mixture onto whole wheat hamburger buns. Serve hot and enjoy!
