Sloppy Joe Nachos - Paleo, GF, DF, Refined sugar free

Sloppy Joe’s are the epitome of comfort food as a child. That and Mac and Cheese

I was craving a yummy sloppy joe the other night so I was searching around for some more natural/whole food recipes to come up with the final verdict of my own! This, ladies and gents, is the perfect balance of flavor. A major winner in our house! 

Prepares 4 servings

What You Need:

  • 4 sweet potatoes 

  • 1 Pound Ground Bison (or any grass fed beef)

  • 1 can fire roasted tomatoes (lower sodium) 

  • 1 red pepper diced

  • 1 yellow pepper diced 

  • 2 tsp minced garlic 

  • 1 tsp garlic powder 

  • 1 tsp onion powder 

  • 1 tbsp oregano 

  • 2 tbsp coconut oil 

  • 1 tsp chili flakes 

  • 1 ½ tbsp paprika 

  • Sea salt & pepper to taste 

  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar 

  • ½ tbsp coconut sugar 

  • 1 ½ tbsp dijon mustard 

Optional Toppings:

What To Do: 

  • For the chips

  • Preheat Oven to 425F 

  • Slice sweet potatoes into circle “chips” 

  • Place on an parchment covered baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tbsp melted coconut oil and sea salt 

  • Bake for 35-40 minutes 

  • For the sloppy Joes

  • Place 1 tbsp coconut oil in a fry pan with the garlic and sautee about 1 minute 

  • Add the ground beef and cook until browned 

  • Add the rest of the ingredients to the pan and stir until well combined and coated with seasonings

  • Simmer for about 10 minutes 

  • Assemble: 

  • Place Sloppy Joe mix over top of sweet potato wedges. Top with whichever toppings you prefer. My favorite is cilantro, nutritional yeast, and more mustard. Tyler loves a bit of cheese as well! 

I love to have the leftovers of this for lunch the next day. The yummiest and freshest of meal preps!
