Sloppy Joes

This is one our old favorites.  I originally put this recipe on my "What's for Dinner?" page, but it is at the very bottom of the page and it doesn't have a link so it may have never been a blog post.  I started Home Ec @ Home two years ago this month, but I didn't even know what a blog was at the time.  A couple of months later, I started my blog, The Home Economist.  I've come a long way since then and thought I would share this recipe again since we love it so much.  This recipe is sweet because of the brown sugar and is great with ground beef or deer.  My boys eat it by the bowl full - it's good even without a bun.  

Ingredients:
1 pound ground beef
1 med. onion chopped
1 can chicken gumbo soup (Light chicken gumbo soup is good too.)
1/2 cup ketchup
¼ cup brown sugar
1 Tablespoon vinegar
2 tsp.  mustard
1/2 tsp. salt

Brown ground meat and onion.  Drain juice and mix in the rest of the ingredients. 

Simmer for 3 to 5 minutes.  

Serve on hamburger buns.
