Sloppy Jose's

Looking for something a little different for dinner, I came up with this Southwestern inspired twist on classic Sloppy Joes.  We love Tex-Mex food and I often have the basics already on hand.  It's an inexpensive meal that's a breeze to throw together and the kids love it.

Serve with a salad or wrap them up in aluminum foil for a meal on-the-go.

Sloppy Jose's

Ingredients:
1 lb ground turkey (or ground beef if you prefer)
1 can Sloppy Joe sauce
10 tortilla shells
1/2 cup Rotel (or Mexican style diced tomatoes)
1/4 cup canned black beans
1/4 cup frozen corn

Directions:
Brown the turkey in a skillet until entirely brown.  Stir in the Sloppy Joe Sauce, Rotel, black beans, and corn.  Cook until all the ingredients are warmed through. 

Warm the tortilla shells in a 300 degree oven for 10 minutes.

Serve:
Spoon the meat mixture over the tortilla shells, two per person, and serve.  The hearty mixture can be very filling.
