A fresh twist on a classic comfort dish featuring lean ground beef slowly simmered with tomatoes, onions, and bell peppers, all served in crisp lettuce wraps. This recipe bursts with hearty flavors and a satisfying texture that makes it perfect for a balanced meal any time of the day.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Lean Ground Beef
1/4 medium Onion, sliced
1/4 medium Bell Pepper, diced
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce (no sugar added)
1 Garlic Clove, minced
4 Iceberg Lettuce Leaves
1 tsp Chili Powder
1/2 tsp Smoked Paprika
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the lean ground beef, breaking it apart as it cooks.
Once the beef begins to brown, add the sliced onions, diced bell pepper, and minced garlic. Sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the tomato sauce along with the chili powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Reduce the heat and let the mixture simmer for 5-7 minutes until slightly thickened.
Remove from heat and spoon the hot sloppy joe mixture into washed and dried iceberg lettuce leaves.
Serve immediately, ensuring each lettuce wrap is filled generously with the savory beef mixture.
