Sloppy Joes



Easy Peasy Sloppy Joes
(found on vegweb.com)

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1 large white onion, chopped
    4 ribs of celery, chopped
    1 small can of green chilies
    6 cloves of chopped/pressed garlic
    1 cup tomato sauce
    3 tablespoons tomato paste
    1/2 cup ketchup
    4 teaspoons Tabasco (or other hot sauce) (I didn't use)
    2-3 teaspoons vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (like Annie's)
    1 cup textured soy protein

Directions:

Heat the oil in a deep skillet (one with a lid would be good) on low. When warm, saute the onions and celery until soft.  Add the garlic and green chilies and cook a few minutes longer.

Add the tomato sauce, tomato paste, ketchup, Tabasco, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook until mixture bubbles. Turn to low and let it simmer for a few minutes.

Turn heat off.

Mix in textured soy protein and put the lid on. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to absorb liquid.

Serve on freshly toasted burger buns.

Serves: 6

Preparation time: 20 minutes
