Ingredients

Honey-Lime Coleslaw

  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley or cilantro
  • salt to taste
  • cayenne to taste
  • 4 cups coleslaw mix

Sloppy Joes

  • 1 pound ground turkey breast
  • 1/2 cup onion minced
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 1/3 cup canned corn kernels
  • 1/3 cup canned black beans drained and rinsed
  • 1 can 4.5 ounces diced green chiles
  • 1 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons mustard
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • salt to taste
  • 4 hamburger buns split, the bottom half slightly hollowed out
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat broiler to High; line baking sheet with parchment paper or Silpat.
  • In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients for the coleslaw; chill in the refrigerator.
  • Saute turkey and onion in oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Drain and return to heat. Stir in ketchup, corn, beans, green chilies, brown sugar, mustard, cumin, salt; heat through 2-3 minutes.
  • Spoon turkey mixture into each of the four bottom buns and arrange on the prepared baking sheet. Top with 1/4 cup cheese. Broil top buns cut side up, along with the bottom buns until buns are toasted and cheese is melted, about 1-2 minutes (keep an eye on them, so they don’t burn!)
  • To serve, spoon slaw onto each sandwich and serve with a toasted top bun.
