I made this recipe using the exact same ingredients except I used Kraft Hickory Honey Barbecue Sauce instead of the Sloppy Joe Sauce. I don't know if there's a recipe on this site for this, but I really enjoyed this.

I am not a fan of sloppy joes. My husband will be the first to attest to that fact for me. We have been together for 12 years, and I have never made them. He's mentioned it a time or two, or three or four, but I just couldn't do it, because I have never ever liked them. After he mentioned it again jokingly just before his birthday, I started researching ideas for a twist on the recipe and came across this one. I decided I would surprise him with it for his birthday. I had to put my own little twist on it, adding onion to the hamburger while it browned and cheesing it up just a bit more. I have

Love this!! But does anyone have any tips on spreading the crescent rolls across the pan? I struggle everytime!

This was scrumptious and very easy! I'm vegetarian, so I used Boca crumbles instead of ground beef and it tastes great. I also put some Italian seasoning on the top before baking. Next time will try throwing in some green pepper or broccoli. Can't wait to take this to the next pot luck!
