Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large sweet potato (cut into ¼ inch slices)
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons ghee
- 1–2 tablespoons garlic (minced)
- ¼ cup yellow onion (diced)
- ¼ cup red onion (diced)
- ½ – 1 green bell pepper (diced)
- 1 pound ground beef
- 3 tablespoons paleo ketchup
- 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- dijon mustard
- sliced pickles
- pickled red onions
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat oven to 415℉.
- Roast Sweet Potatoes: Place your sweet potato slices on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil and massage to coat both sides. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Place in the oven, middle rack, and let roast 10-12 minutes or until firm, but tender.
- Sauté: Meanwhile, bring a large cast iron skillet to medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons ghee or oil and swirl to coat the pan. Add 1-2 tablespoons garlic and move around the pan until fragrant, about 10-20 seconds. Add diced yellow and red onions and diced bell pepper. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, allowing onions to soften.
- Brown Beef: Add 1 pound ground beef to the pan. Move around the pan until beef is cooked through, about 5-10 minutes. Drain excess grease.
- Combine: Add 3 tablespoons paleo ketchup, 2 tablespoons coconut aminos, 2 tablespoons tomato paste, 1 teaspoon dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon yellow mustard, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar and ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper. Stir to combine.
- Taste and adjust: if you want more sloppy joes more “saucey” simply add additional ketchup and tomato paste. Otherwise, adjust any salt or pepper, as desired.
- Serving: place a few slices of roasted sweet potato to a bowl and place some of the sloppy Joe mixture next to it. Top with sliced pickles, pickled onions and a little extra dijon mustard.
Notes
Feel free to add in some diced carrots for even more fiber and bit of crunch. You can add in more chili powder or even some cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes if you want it spicy! Double the recipe for leftovers.
