Recipe Review - Turkey Sloppy Joes

Source: Taste of Home

Makes 14-16 Servings

1 pound bulk pork sausage [ I used turkey.]
1 pound ground beef [see above]
1 medium onion, chopped
14 to 16 sandwich buns, split
2 cans (8 ounces each) tomato sauce
2 tablespoons prepared mustard
1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano

In a large skillet, cook the sausage, beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain.Remove the centers from the tops and bottoms of each bun. Tear removed bread into small pieces; add to skillet. Set buns aside.

Stir in remaining ingredients into sausage mixture. Spoon about 1/3 cupful onto the bottom of each bun; replace tops. Wrap individually in heavy-duty foil.

Bake at 350° for 20 minutes or until heated through or freeze for up to 3 months.

To use frozen sandwiches: Bake at 350° for 35 minutes or until heated through.

What I did differently: I did not remove the centers of buns and I didn't add any bread to the skillet. It worked out fine.

Verdict: We had this on the day that I made it and I really didn't like the flavor. The mustard flavor was way to strong but when I pulled this from the freezer and we had it the flavors had blended together better and I loved it. This was even better after frozen. I would make again.
