Open-Face Garlic Toast Sloppy Joes
Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Brush the sourdough slices with olive oil and rub them with minced garlic. Place on a baking sheet and toast in the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef, onion, and bell pepper until the meat is browned and the vegetables are soft, about 7-10 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
Stir in the tomato sauce, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, mustard, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes, until the mixture thickens slightly.
Spoon the beef mixture over the toasted garlic bread slices. Top each with shredded cheddar cheese.
Return to the oven for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
