In this vegetable rich Sloppy Joe recipe, the ground beef is browned in a skillet, then transferred to a slow cooker with all of the other ingredients. Using a jar of salsa gives the dish a spicy, Southwest flavor. Mushrooms, carrots, and peppers give it color, texture, and vitamins. Serve the delicious mixture on kaiser rolls for dinner one night, and save the leftovers for taco salads the next.
