Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joe

Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes – If you like sloppy Joes and like a Philly cheesesteak sandwich, you are going to love this quick and easy dinner.

When I was growing up with had Sloppy Joes quite often for dinner.  I still make the same recipe my mom did, and it is a staple in our house.  But sometimes you want to mix things up!  Taco Sloppy Joes is a new way to enjoy an old favorite that is a big hit.  

The classic Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich is one of my favorites.  Seriously, if it is on a menu, there is a good chance it is what I will order.  There is just something about them I love.  So I had to combine 2 classics into one tasty dinner.

Philly Cheesesteak’s are one of my favorite sandwiches.  I don’t eat them the right way (my dislike of cheese, and all), but I still love them!  I really want to go to Philly and get a real one, but I am scared they will shun me from their city.  I don’t mind a little cheese on there, but it has to be provolone.  Onion and mushrooms are a must!  From what I have seen on TV, this is not the way they are done in Philly.

So, I will stick with my local place that caters to my strangeness, and doesn’t judge.  Well maybe they judge, but not to my face.  And now, I can make this sloppy joe version at home!  This isn’t quite the same, as it uses ground meat (obviously), but the underlying flavors are there.

Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes are such a great easy dinner any night of the week.  You can customize to what your family likes.  If you want lots of green peppers, you can add more. If you don’t like mushrooms, you can leave them out.  Then you mix all the cheese in and it gets melty and all kinds of deliciousness!

Sloppy Joes are such a classic dinner.  I love to use them to feed a crowd when we have people over.  And these are no different. Everyone raves about them, they are easy and so good!  You could keep them warm in the crock pot if you wanted to make them ahead of time too.

Sounds delicious! But, we don't keep ketchup in our house. Is there something we can substitute for it?

You could try a little tomato sauce to see if it works.
