Vegan Sloppy Joes
Wonderfully sweet and tangy Sloppy Joes that I grew up with, but veganized! You won't find any bell peppers here. This is far more wholesome than most Sloppy Joe recipes. The spices can be easily adjusted. These are also great with sweet potato fries! Try this for a quick and economical weeknight meal.

Cook's Notes:
You can use 1 pound steamed lentils (such as Melissa's(R) from the produce aisle at Trader Joe's(R)) in place of meatless grounds, if you like. Just add some vegan beef-flavored bouillon base (not stock, you wouldn't want to add extra liquid) and a pinch of garlic powder to give it a beefy flavor. This is a healthy and tasty soy-free alternative to grounds.
Sometimes I steam the hamburger buns on top of the filling mixture until it's finished cooking.
