Is there supposed to be some water in this recipe? I added a tomato paste can of water because my mixture was very dry.
Nope, I didn’t need any water but if your mixture seems too thick it doesn’t hurt to add some, maybe your paste was thicker?
Just made this and it was absolutely delicious! Thank you for the awesome recipe!
You are very welcome, so glad you enjoyed it 🙂
My whole family loved it! Will def make again. This ”sloppy joe” sauce mixture is amazing. I’ve used it in other recipes and have eaten in a pita wrap as well. So good!
That is so awesome to hear! Glad everyone enjoyed it 🙂
