Picky-Eater Sloppy Joes Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Popular Recipes. (Picky-Eater Sloppy Joes Recipe). My oldest is extremely picky and has only ever eaten one vegetable willingly - the potato. I had to get creative in hiding them. This is my homemade sloppy joe recipe which she eats every time and still has no clue about the veggies in the sauce. Using pre-chopped frozen onion or pre-shredded carrots cuts the prep time.
