Nana Cole’s Sloppy Joes
My dear friend, Pam was telling me about her grandmother’s Sloppy Joes recipe and it’s secret ingredient! I had NEVER heard of or ever even thought of putting condensed Chicken Gumbo soup in really anything, much less Sloppy Joes! But, let me tell you Pam and her friends eat well and cook well and I knew if they loved it, it had to be good!! So, I immediately went and got the soup, I had everything else on hand. They are so YUMMY!! You will never buy that canned stuff again!
This recipe is a keeper and I have been sharing it with my friends and family for over 6 years. I think you and your family will love it too!
