If you are looking for great meal to serve on a night where you need dinner done in less than an hour, this Sloppy Joe Meatball Casserole is for you. It is so simple to throw together. I just love an easy recipe that everyone at my table eats happily.
There are only four ingredients in this wonderful casserole. You do not need to mix anything up. The hardest thing you will have to do is slice some cheese to put on top of the Manwich. This really is an easy recipe. So, if you are new to cooking and want a recipe that is pretty close to fool proof, give this one a try. On the other hand, if you have been cooking for years, you can probably do this recipe in your sleep. 😉
