I’m sure that by now many of you know that I’ve been blessed with a household of some of the pickiest eaters on the planet. When I loaded these sloppy joes with four different mushroom varieties, it created a mushroom flavor that none of my kids dared to sample. Enter my surrogate kids, who are delighted to eat my leftovers any time! Thanks Rachel, Rosie, and Tehila for being my taste-testing guinea pigs and for your unconditional stamp of approval.

Easy Gluten Free Meat

Contains: Sesame, Soy

Directions

  1. Heat oil in a large sauté pan. Place the ground beef in the pan and cook over

    medium heat, breaking up and stirring the meat with a wooden spoon while it browns. Once fully cooked and crumbly, transfer the meat to your slow cooker.

  2. Add the mushrooms, teriyaki sauce, sautéed onions, garlic, soup mix, brown

    sugar, vinegar, sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Stir until combined. Cook on low for four to five hours until soft, stirring several times throughout.

  3. About an hour before serving, make a cornstarch slurry by combining the cold

    water and cornstarch and mixing it until smooth. Stir it into the meat mixture and cook for an additional hour, or until slightly thickened. Serve over rice.

Tips:
For a complete meal in one, add a package of defrosted frozen whole green beans. Place them on top of the meat mixture after adding the cornstarch slurry. Sprinkle with salt to taste and cook for 45–60 minutes, or until heated through.

Slow cookers are designed to do their own thing, so you don’t need to keep checking the contents. Every time you take the lid off, it releases some of the heat, so if you keep checking on the food, increase the cooking time a bit.
