Feeding a family of five I am sucker for easy hearty casseroles and this is an oldie but goody . This is one of those recipes all busy moms should have on their go to recipe list, trust me it will be a family favorite. It has the yummy comforting flavors of a Sloppy Joe but all in one dish. I have been cooking a version of this for years but it is forever changing and this is what it has morphed into today. If you like easy Casseroles check out my Cattle Drive Casserole .

I used to make this with cornbread on top but fluffy warm biscuits work best in my opinion. It is almost like an upside down open face sloppy joe  with ooey cheese stuck in middle. I think when I first started making this I only used one pound of meat with one can of sloppy joe mix and made it in a small brownie pan. Times have changed and now I have three teenage boys that are bottomless pits so the recipe has grown along with my family.

5 stars
I made this casserole last night for our Mother and Daughters’ dinner. We all agreed it deserves 5 stars. Everyone loved it. I did make a few changes, due to dietary problems. I did not use onions, bell pepper, red pepper or garlic. The Hunt’s Manwich had sufficient seasoning. Thank you for sharing your recipe.

I added a small can of Rotel tomatoes, just a little something extra.

This recipe was delicious. There are just the two of us so it was easy to halve the ingredients. It took longer than 20 minutes – more like 25, but it was worth the wait. And the garlic butter brushed on top made it crispy and delicious. Its in my rotation now!
