Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes
I'm not a huge sloppy joe fan, but I do love Philly cheesesteaks! I came across this recipe while looking for low glycemic recipes. I had failed my 1 hour glucose test at 24 weeks pregnant, so I was worried I might have gestational diabetes. I passed the 3 hours though woohoo! But before I took the 3 hour test I was researching gestational diabetes and meal planned for the week as if I had it so I could try it out. It's really not that different then what I was eating before honestly. Except no more sweet treats which I've been indulging in way to much this pregnancy.
I liked how easy this was, but it was kinda bland. The most annoying part was chopping, but I have one of those choppers that empty into a bowl so that's quick. I also used ground beef instead of turkey because that's what I had, and I toasted the provolone on the bun instead of mixing it into the sloppy joe mixture. I also added garlic because yum. If I make this again I'd put it on a hoagie roll instead of a bun so it didn't fall out.
I actually made mine quesadilla style on a low carb tortilla. My sons plate had an extra turkey sandwich because we have a bunch of turkey to use up that my husband smoked and he's a teenager so he's always hungry.
The broccoli was just bagged broccoli that after I steamed I mixed with some queso, Frank's hot sauce, a dash of cayenne, a bit of garlic powder and smoked paprika.
