Southwest Cornbread Sloppy Joes {VIDEO}

If you’re looking for a comforting meal but without all the calories, these Southwest Cornbread Sloppy Joes are your match!

Do you have a hard time thinking of new ways to cook ground beef? While I love Triple BBQ Crunch Burgers and  Beef, Spinach, & Cheese Manicotti, it’s nice to have a new and unique recipe to mix things up. These Southwest Cornbread Sloppy Joes do  just that and can you get much better than having a cornbread base?!? Not only are these sloppy joes packed with flavor but they come together in less than 30 minutes. With school starting up again, I know we could all use some quick, delicious, and healthy meals to fuel ourselves and our little ones.
If you're looking for a comforting meal but without all the calories, these Southwest Cornbread Sloppy Joes are your match!You can prep most of this ahead of time. Make the cornbread in advance and just chop up all the veggies and put them in the fridge. With all that done you can have this on the table in just 15 minutes! Wahoo! No hangry kids pulling on your clothes.

You can serve the sloppy joe mix over the cornbread as is but if you want to take it to the next level, spread butter on the cornbread and fry it in a pan until it’s lightly toasted. Then you have a somewhat crispy edge of sweet cornbread. The juices of the beef and vegetable mix seep into the cornbread bringing everything together. So delish!

I like to use lean meat like ground sirloin or ground round but you can use ground beef if that’s what you have on hand. Just remember to drain the fat off. Enjoy!
