The Celebrity Chef for August will be Rachael Ray who built an entire empire on 30 Minute Meals!
Did you know the only food that RR doesn't like to use is mayonnaise, yep-it's the truth!
It didn't take long to decide what I wanted to make,
as soon as the kid in me saw Super Sloppy Joes well, I wanted to try them:@)

Super Sloppy Joes1 Tblsp extra virgin olive oil
1 1/4lbs ground sirloin
1/4 C brown sugar
2 tsp to 1 Tblsp Steak Seasoning-I like 1 1/2 tsp
1 medium onion, chopped
1 small red bell pepper, chopped
1 Tblsp red wine vinegar
1 Tblsp Worcestershire Sauce
2 C tomato sauce
2 Tblsp tomato paste
4 crusty rolls, split, buttered and lightly toasted
Directions
Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add oil and meat to the pan. Spread the meat around the pan and begin to break it up. Combine brown sugar and steak seasoning. Add sugar and spice mixture to the skillet and combine. When the meat has browned, add onion and red peppers to the skillet. Reduce heat to medium and cook onions, peppers, red wine vinegar and Worcestershire sauce with meat for 5 minutes. Add tomato sauce and paste to pan. Stir to combine. Reduce heat to simmer and cook Sloppy Joe mixture 5 minutes longer. Using a large spoon or ice cream scoop, pile sloppy meat onto toasted, buttered bun bottoms and cover with bun tops.
Let's break out the EVOO and see if we can turn the stove off within 30 minutes!
See you August 15th and if you're new to the Celebrity Cook-Along details are HERE.
Have a happy day:@)
