Sloppy Joe Grilled Cheese Casserole

 Sloppy Joe Grilled Cheese Casserole
Sloppy Joe Grilled Cheese Casserole is an easy ground beef dinner recipe your whole family will love.

This tasty casserole is loaded with mozzarella cheese and sloppy joe filling sandwiched between two layers of bread.

To make this sloppy joe casserole, I started by browning some ground beef in a large frying pan along with some diced onions.

While the ground beef was cooking, I combined some ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar and onion powder in a small mixing bowl.

This one is so simple to prepare in hardly any time at all. You can even make the sloppy joe part a few days in advance. Maybe on a Sunday evening so you already have a meal half made for the week.

I can’t seem to find Texas Toast at my grocery store any more. What’s up with that? So instead I used a hearty white bread which I actually really like for grilled cheese becasue it holds up so well. Pepperidge Farm Hearty White is the one I buy.

The sloppy joe mixture is a little sweet and it gets covered in melted ooey, gooey cheddar cheese. Use another type of cheese if you like. I like to use a lot of sloppy joe in relation to the cheese, but you can go heavier on the cheese and lighter on the sloppy joe.

And that golden, buttery crust on the bread!

Seriously yum y’all.

Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup [url href=”https://www.thereciperebel.com/sc-beef-lentil-bbq-sloppy-joes/” target=”_blank”]leftover sloppy joes[/url]
  • 2 thick slices of cheddar or marble cheese
  • 2 slices of bread (I used Rye, I like the thinner bread for grilled chese)
  • 1 tbsp butter
Instructions
  1. Spread butter on one side of each piece of bread. Place one piece of bread, butter side down in the frying pan.
  2. Place on slice of cheese on the piece of bread. Top with leftover sloppy joes (cold works best, so that you can spread it evenly without it sliding out). Top with remaining slice of cheese and piece of bread, butter side out.
  3. Heat pan over medium to medium-high heat and cook until the first side is golden brown. Flip sandwich and cook until the second side is equally golden brown.
