Mmmm, I have to admit I love sloppy joes – so here’s a healthier way to make them!

PREP TIME 15 Min COOK TIME 15 Min READY IN 30 Min

INGREDIENTS 1 tablespoon olive oil 1/2 cup chopped onion 1/2 cup chopped celery 1/2 cup chopped carrots 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper 1 clove garlic, minced 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes 1 1/2 tablespoons chili powder 1 tablespoon tomato paste 1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar 1 teaspoon ground black pepper 1 (15 ounce) can kidney beans, drained and rinsed 8 kaiser rolls

DIRECTIONS Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, celery, carrot, green pepper, and garlic: saute until tender. Stir in tomatoes, chili powder, tomato paste, vinegar, and pepper. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes. Stir in kidney beans, and cook an additional 5 minutes. Cut a 1/4 inch slice off the top of each kaiser roll; set aside. Hollow out the center of each roll, leaving about 1/2 inch thick shells; reserve the inside of rolls for other uses. Spoon bean mixture evenly into rolls and replace tops. Serve immediately.
