What are you cooking for dinner this week? How about whipping up some Sloppy Joe’s Tacos? Yep…those cans of Manwich can be used for more than just the sandwiches that we all know and love!
To say that my guys love Manwich is probably an understatement. I am not sure if they love the taste or the fact that a Sloppy Joe somehow gives them the OK to be messy at dinnertime. I am sure it’s probably a little of both! In all honesty, I love Manwich too. It tastes great and it makes dinner prep so simple.
You guys know that I like to shake things up a bit so rather than the standard Sloppy Joe sandwich, every once in a while I’ll opt for making Sloppy Joe’s Tacos. This recipe is just as easy as the sandwich version. You simply add a little cumin to give the sauce that south of the border taste. Then you just trade your bun for taco shells. Add in your favorite toppings and dinner is on the table in 15 minutes!
What’s great is that we have a Manwich sale plus a matching Publix coupon. That way you can put together a standard Sloppy Joe’s dinner, plus you’ll have an extra can that you can use to try out the Sloppy Joe’s Tacos recipe too! Here’s the deal in the current Advantage Buy flyer –
