Making weeknight meals should be easy and quick but also healthy. One-pan meals are super easy. Not to mention the cleanup is minimal. This week's weeknight recipe is a spin on the sloppy joe using Italian ingredients. Follow along and try our easy Italian Sloppy Joes recipe for yourself.

Some notes on this recipe. You can easily change it to ground turkey if you prefer that. If you want it spicier, add ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes instead of ⅛ tsp.

Doesn't it look yummy? My family really enjoyed it and it was great as leftovers too. We added more red pepper flakes so it was a bit spicier but delicious.
