I love simple dinners. With basketball practices, piano lessons, gymnastics and small group on weekday evenings, I’m always on the look out for new and delicious recipes that are easy to get on the table quickly. And I’m partial to ground beef recipes since we always have a grass fed cow in the freezer! 🙂 So, Manwich really fits my bill perfectly. It’s just so versatile. I can brown up some of my own beef and add a sweet, tangy can of hearty sauce and then take my meal in any direction! Sandwiches, pasta, pizzas, calzones and wraps.
This week I used Manwich Thick & Chunky to make tangy, mini-pizzas and calzones. So good. So simple. They were devoured. But, Manwich also has two other flavors, Original and Bold.
Sloppy Joe Mini-Pizzas are perfect for a busy weeknight. Kick off your week with this easy, tasty, family meal and get them around the table on the way out to basketball practice. Make it a messy-licious Manwich Monday with the kid stopping power the sauce. Check out even more Manwich Monday Recipes here.

What you do:

Alternatively you can make a calzone with the same ingredients. Just add less of the ingredients and fold the dough over, seal it, bake it, eat it. A one-handed, tasty and hearty meal that you can eat on the go! Super versatile.
