Sloppy Turkey Joe
Ground turkey simmered with onion, bell pepper, garlic, tomato paste, and canned tomato in a tangy-sweet sauce seasoned with Worcestershire and brown sugar. The loose, savory mixture is spooned onto a toasted brioche bun, a lighter take on the classic sloppy joe.

Instructions
1
Prep
Finely dice the onion and bell pepper and mince the garlic so they cook down evenly into the sauce.
2
Saute
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the onion and bell pepper 4 minutes until softened and translucent.
3
Brown
Add the ground turkey and cook over medium-high heat 5 minutes, breaking it apart, until no pink remains and the meat has lightly browned.
4
Simmer
Stir in garlic, tomato paste, crushed tomatoes, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, mustard, salt, and pepper; simmer over medium-low heat 10 minutes until the sauce thickens.
5
Plate
Toast the split brioche bun cut-side down, spoon the hot turkey mixture onto the bottom bun, cap, and serve immediately.
