Too strong of a tomato flavor(?) Something needed to be toned down in this recipe. I just don't know what it is.

this is very good for a picnic or impromptu party and it stays frozen until needed for any occasion.

I'll make this recipe today for the third time. Hubby has always made our Sloppy Joes until we found this recipe and it is perfect! There's just two of us so we cut the recipe in half and freeze it to use as needed. This time we have company coming and I suspect there won't be much left over when they leave.

I made this for my grandaughters grad party.

Everyone loved it. I froze it ahead of time, and just reheated in electric roaster.
