Perfect Vegan Sloppy Joes Food

BEST VEGAN SLOPPY JOES

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a 12-inch sauté pan over medium heat. Add onion, bell pepper, carrot and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 5 minutes until the veggies start to soften.
• To veggies, add plant-based meat crumbles, lentils, chili powder, oregano, cayenne pepper, salt and black pepper. Add the tomato paste, then stir, breaking up the crumbles, and cook for 1 minute just to get the flavours going.
• Pour in tomato sauce, vegetable broth, yellow mustard and maple syrup (if using). Give everything a stir so the ingredients are nice and incorporated. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to a medium-low so it's just lightly bubbling, cover with the lid ajar and cook for 10 minutes or until it's reached the consistency you like best.Note: Start with 1 cup of vegetable broth and add more if you feel like you want a looser or thinner consistency.
• Stir in balsamic vinegar and add more salt if you feel it needs it for your tastes.
• Serve the sloppy joe filling on warmed or toasted buns. Garnish to taste, if desired, with any of your favourite sloppy joe toppings or serve as is. Enjoy! Yields about 6 to 8 sloppy joes, depending on how much you top each bun.Note: Properly store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and use within 3 to 4 days, reheating before serving. The sloppy joe mixture may thicken as it cools, but you can always add a little more vegetable broth or water to thin if needed.
