For another lightened-up take on sloppy joes, try our turkey sloppy joes topped with cheddar cheese!
Mushrooms: we use a simple mix of button and cremini mushrooms, but feel free to use other varieties such as king trumpet or oyster mushrooms if they are available to you. Tomato paste: we let the tomato paste caramelize in the pan, which adds a ton of flavor. Light beer: a light beer such as a lager adds depth of flavor and a hint of sweetness while replacing the liquid from traditionally used canned tomatoes. Chipotle peppers in adobo: chipotle peppers in adobo are spicy and distinctly smoky with an underlying sweetness. Find them in cans or jars with the Mexican products at your grocery store.
Other ingredients you need are vegetable oil, onions, garlic, walnuts, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, sea salt, and your favorite hamburger buns.
To make the slaw, you just need purple cabbage, carrot, red onion, cilantro, and drizzle of olive oil. The easy 4-ingredient chipotle aioli is just a mix of mayonnaise (vegan if needed), chipotle peppers in adobo, fresh lime juice, and sea salt.
