Do they really need dinner, EVERY night?!? As a Mom of four kids, getting dinner on the table can be easier sometimes than others. Plus, making a meal that the kids will actually eat is definitely a challenge in itself. The other day, I decided to try something new that I thought the kids would love, waffle sloppy joes. I was right, and we have made them twice since {per the kids request}. I have the perfect recipe for you to make tonight for your family. After all, it is Manwich Monday, and easy way to get your week started off on the right foot. Mondays are hard around here. If you need some recipes, check out these great Manwich Monday Recipes. All you need for this recipe is four simple ingredients: 1 lb Ground Beef {browned} 1 can original Manwich Sloppy Joe Sauce {a meatless sauce that adds a sweet tangy taste}, or you could use Manwich Bold or Manwich Thick and Chunky. 1 tube of refrigerated biscuits {I like the butter flavor} and sliced cheese of your choice, we used cheddar.
As you can imagine, the waffles are very simple to make. We dipped our waffles in sour cream, ranch dressing, or ketchup depending on the likes and dislikes in our family. I love how simple they were to make which was a bonus for a busy mom like myself. Getting the family together for a meal is a feat in itself, and I’ve been thinking a lot about this lately. One night a week, my oldest doesn’t get home from dance until 9pm. I’m not complaining, because she learns a lot from that outlet, but when we sit down together as a family, it’s a real treat. When we sit down together, it seems to be easy to forget the distractions of our busy lives. This meal, might be a little messy, but I think the kids enjoy it better that way. I think it’s kind of fun for them to eat waffles in an unconventional way! They thought it was silly, and it made them smile, which in turn made me smile. It was a win/win. It reminded me to try a little harder to grab a waffle in both hands, be silly, set those phones down and enjoy each other! If you can’t find Manwich in your area, look here to use the product locator to find a store near you who carries it.
