COPING BY COOKING: A QUARANTINE RECIPE SERIES

Here is Recipe #20! Remember: these ingredients and instructions are suggestions. I encourage you to be creative, use what you have, and make the adjustments that make sense for you. Measurements not included because I don't measure. 😍

INGREDIENTS

Cooked Meat Sauce
Buns
Red Cabbage
Red Onions
Pickles
Pickled Hot Peppers
Butter

INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 1: Prepare the vegetables. Thinly slice the red cabbage and dice the onion.

STEP 2: Reheat the cooked meat sauce or make a fresh batch! *Tip* See Recipe #13 for an example. I've always used leftover meat sauce for Sloppy Joes but I'm sure official recipes exist!

STEP 3: Toast and butter your buns if you'd like.

STEP 4: Generously spread meat sauce on the bun. Know that it's going to fall out and add more anyways.

STEP 5: Top with red cabbage, red onions, pickles, and pickled Hot peppers.

STEP 6: Eat and enjoy!
