With my almost-ex-husband having moved out, my daughter off visiting her cousins in another state, I suddenly found myself looking in the refrigerator and asking myself, what am I going to make for dinner? This 3 Ingredient Sloppy Joe recipe, of course!

Why is this 3 Ingredient Sloppy Joe recipe so PERFECT for a weeknight meal??
You might think that this would be the perfect opportunity for me to go nuts and eat fast food every night, but I actually don’t like fast food…AT ALL. Well, except for Chick FilA and the occasional Arby’s.
Even though I like those places, eating that food more than once or twice a month isn’t really conducive to my weight loss plan!
So quick and easy meals it is! This 3 Ingredient Sloppy Joe recipe reminds me of my middle school days, when my friends and I would get so excited when we saw Sloppy Joes on the menu…but they never tasted quite as good as they looked, did they? NOPE!

Or are you looking for something a little less healthy, and a little more on the comfort food side? Check out our Chicken Alfredo Roll Ups recipe!
This Chicken Alfredo Roll Ups Recipe is really good and pretty easy to make. This recipe is very similar to a lasagna, just with a little chicken alfredo twist!
Also, because you are rolling up each of the lasagna noodles with the chicken alfredo mixture inside, they cook that way and they are much easier to serve – and they come out in individual servings, so you don’t have to worry about sizing up portions or the servings falling apart when you are serving them, like you do with lasagna and some other pasta and casserole dishes.
