Why I Love This Meal

Quick and easy – I can whip this whole meal up in less than 30 minutes.
Adaptable – I used french bread for the base but you could just as easily use a store-bought pizza dough. Or swap out the ground beef for ground turkey or chicken.
Kid Friendly – Almost all kids seem to love sloppy joes, and us grown-ups get all nostalgic for it. It’s a win-win!

How to Make Sloppy Joe Pizza

See the recipe card below for full, detailed instructions

Preheat the oven to 350℉ and line a sheet pan with foil.
Slice a french bread loaf in half lengthwise and place the halves side by side on the baking sheet.
Saute onion and bell pepper in olive oil until soft, then crumble in some ground beef and cook until no longer pink.
Stir in the sloppy joe sauce and heat through.
Spread the meat mixture onto the french bread halves from end to end then top with cheese.
Bake until the cheese is bubbly, garnish with fresh parsley and rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Storing Leftovers

If you have leftovers, store in a resealable bag or airtight container for 2-3 days. Reheat in the oven or an air fryer until heated through.
