Sloppy Joes to the Rescue

A quick easy meal that can be made from either beef or chunks of tofu! Although I didn’t marinade the beef, I would suggest doing that for either protein you choose. It’s savory and some might call it scrumptious. This could even be a great way to use up leftovers.

• 1/2 lb protein (beef chunks or cubed tofu)
• 1 red pepper
• 1/2 onion
• 1/2 cup ketchup
• 1/2 tsp cornstarch
• 1 tbs Worcester Sauce
• 1 tbs oil
• 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
• crushed red pepper to taste
• cilantro for topping

Cook your protein until fully cooked in oil.  Add onions, red pepper and cook until onions are clear. Add ketchup and Worcester sauce consistently mix until bubbly. Dilute cornstarch in cold water, mix and add to beef/tofu mixture. Stir while cornstarch mixes in and thickens the sauce.  Add black pepper, red pepper for taste. Serve hot!

Note: If this mixture gets too thick, add a little more ketchup/Worcester sauce.
