Just Say Baa Baa Sloppy Josephos


Sloppy joe's fine-tuned! If you want, substitute greek oregano for the rosemary. I served the lamb mixture on two different type of bread to appease all- whole wheat/ multi-grain dinner rolls and ciabatta. From sunset magazine, february 2006.

Steps


Brown the lamb on high heat in a non-stick skillet , crumbling the meat with a fork.
Brown for about 8 minutes.
Remove meat with a slotted spoon , reserving 1 tablespoon of the fat.
Return the lamb to the pan and add the onion and garlic.
Brown the mixture for about 4-5 minutes or until onion begins to brown.
Add the tomato puree , honey , rosemary.
Stir until hot , approximately 2 minutes.
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Steam the rolls and set roll bottoms on individual dinner plates.
Divide the baby spinach leaves among each roll bottom , followed by the lamb mixture , roasted bell pepper slices and the cheese.
Add the roll tops , slightly off-center.
Fyi: yield may vary depending on what type of bread you use.
