Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound portobello mushrooms (gills+stems removed)
3/4 cup California Walnuts
2 tablespoons oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 cups ketchup
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon EACH: dry mustard AND cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (or vegan Worcestershire)
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
buns for serving

Steps:

  • make the 'meat': Pulse the mushrooms and walnuts in a food processor in batches until it breaks down into a ground beef texture.
  • cook: heat the oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the onions, bell pepper and minced garlic, and let cook for 5 minutes or until the veggies soften. Add the prepared mushroom mix to the skillet, stir so everything is well combined and let cook for 5 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients: ketchup, brown sugar, dry mustard, cayenne, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, and apple cider vinegar. Stir everything together and let simmer for 5 minutes. Adjust with additional salt to taste.
  • assemble: Serve the prepared sloppy joe mix on top of toasted buns. Best when served the day it's prepared. I find the sloppy joes mixture looses that texture on day two.

Sloppy Joes is a classic American sandwich that is made with ground beef, tomato sauce, and various spices. It is usually served on a hamburger bun and is a popular meal option in many households. However, for vegetarians and those that are health conscious, meatless sloppy Joes are a delicious and satisfying option. Meatless sloppy Joes are easy to make, and there are a variety of delicious recipes available. In this article, we will provide valuable tips to help you make amazing meatless sloppy Joes recipes.

Tip 1: Choose the Best Meatless Meat

The key to making a tasty and satisfying meatless sloppy Jo is to choose the right meat substitute. The most common meat substitutes are plant-based meats, soy crumbles, and lentils. Plant-based meats, such as Beyond Meat or Impossible Meat, are a great option as they closely mimic the texture and taste of real beef. Soy crumbles, such as those made by Boca, provide a similar texture to ground beef but are made from soybeans. Lentils, on the other hand, are an excellent source of protein and add a unique texture and flavor to the dish. Regardless of which meat substitute you choose, make sure to season it well with various spices to achieve a rich flavor and meaty texture.

Tip 2: Use the Right Spices

To make a delicious meatless sloppy Joe, it is essential to use the right spices. The standard spices used in traditional sloppy Joes are garlic, onion, chili powder, paprika, and cumin. These spices are crucial in mimicking the flavor profile of traditional beef sloppy Joes. You can also add other spices such as oregano, thyme, and smoked paprika to enhance the flavor further.

Tip 3: Make Your Own Sauce

Making your own sauce is an essential component of a meatless sloppy Joe. The sauce is what provides the dish with its signature tangy flavor. The most important ingredient in the sauce is tomato sauce. You can use canned tomato sauce, but making your own sauce from scratch is a great way to customize the flavor profile. To make your own sauce, you will need diced tomatoes, tomato paste, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and mustard. Simmer these ingredients in a pot until they thicken into a rich sauce.

Tip 4: Get Creative with the Toppings

The toppings are an essential part of any sandwich, and sloppy Joes are no exception. You can get creative with the toppings, adding ingredients such as sliced avocado, pickled jalapenos, sliced onions, sliced bell peppers, or shredded cheese. The toppings will add texture, depth, and additional flavors to the sandwich. You can also switch up the type of bun used; try a whole-grain bun or a brioche bun to add an extra layer of flavor and texture to the dish.

Tip 5: Don’t Forget the Sides

To complete the meal, it’s essential to have a delicious side dish. The most common side dishes that are paired with sloppy Joes are french fries or onion rings. However, you can also try side dishes such as coleslaw, roasted vegetables, or a side salad. Adding a side dish will make the meal more satisfying and well-rounded.
Conclusion
In conclusion, meatless sloppy Joes are a tasty and healthy alternative to traditional beef sloppy Joes. By following the tips outlined in this article, you can make amazing meatless sloppy Joes that will leave your taste buds happy and your body fueled. Choose the right meat substitute, use the right spices, make your own sauce, get creative with the toppings, and don't forget the sides.
