Active Time: 30 min
Ingredients
Bread of your choice (We used Sourdough)
3 slices of Vegan Cheddar Cheese - Daiya Cheddar Style Slices
Vegan Butter - Nuttelex Buttery Spread with Coconut Oil
150g of Plant-based Ground Beef - Beyond Beef
2 tbsp of Tomato Paste
1 tbsp of Ketchup or BBQ sauce (optional)
2 tbsp of vegan Worcestershire sauce - Beerenberg Worcestershire Sauce
½ onion
3 cloves of garlic
1 tsp mustard
1 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Method
Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic. Heat up 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and fry the onion and garlic.
Add your preferred choice of plant-based minced meat and cook for 5-7 minutes.
To the minced meat, add the tomato paste, mustard and vegan Worcestershire sauce. Let the meat simmer over medium-low heat for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
To the meat, add your desired amount of salt and pepper. If would like the minced meat to be on the sweeter side, add 1 tablespoon of ketchup. If you would like it to have a deeper taste, add 1 tablespoon of BBQ sauce instead.
Place the minced meat mixture aside while you prepare the other ingredients.
Add the 2 slices of bread, buttered on both sides, to the warm skillet. Add the sloppy joe mix and 3 slices of cheese on top. Cook over low heat for 3-4 minutes and flip until sandwich until both slices of bread have crisped nicely and the cheese is melted.
Slice into half and serve immediately.
