For peeps who don't like mushrooms, eggplant is a terrific substitute in most recipes.

You might also be able to substitute zucchini instead of eggplant (or mushrooms), but it depends. Zucchini is more watery than eggplant so it can become too soft for some dishes. It also doesn't have the same "meaty" bite as mushrooms and eggplant.

Now a Confession: Eggplant was literally one of the very last vegetables I incorporated into my plant-based diet. Prior to being vegan, my only experience with eggplant was eggplant parmesan LOL.

A few years back, noticing how affordable eggplants were, I started buying them up and forcing myself to find ways to use them. Hence where all the new eggplant recipes come from! Enjoy! 🍆

11 Creative Vegan Sloppy Joe Recipes

Sloppy Joes are THE sandwich of summer (if you want my opinion).

It's extremely hot where I live these days (100s) which means a piping hot meal or soup is out of the question. While I don't mind eating salads and "bowls" (e.g. burrito bowls) my family definitely gets tired of them. I also find I can't serve the typical sandwich (e.g. PB&J, "Eggless" Egg Salad, Mock Tuna) since they're eating those for lunch.

Which leads me back to the sloppy joe. It feels more like a meal (especially when served "open face") and over the years I've created 9 interesting variations to keep it exciting and fresh.

You can find these recipes in the app (or web planner)

African Sloppy Joes (Vetkoek)
BBQ Sloppy Joes
Caribbean Sloppy Joes
Messy Puttanessies (Italian Sloppy Joes)
Pizza Joes
Pumpkin Sloppy Joes
Sloppy Buffalo’d Joes
Sloppy Srirachies (Asian-Style Sloppy Joes)
Tex Mex Sloppy Joes
Thai Sloppy Joes

There's also Sloppy Joe Spaghetti for when you get tired of buns ;)

There's also 14 "Slider" recipes, which is just another style of sloppy joe IMHO.

bangin’ sliders
bbq cauliflower (or jackfruit) sliders
bbq peach sliders
bbq sweet potato sliders
bbq tofu sliders
bolognese sliders (italian-style)
buffalo ranch sliders
butternut bbq sliders
hawaiian bbq sliders
hawaiian sliders
korean bbq sliders
pulled “pork” sliders
torta sliders (mexican-style)
tropical bbq sliders

ALL of these recipes can be found in the Meal Mentor app or using the Web Planner.

For this Free Recipe Friday, I'm sharing my "OG" recipe -- the classic sloppy joe

BUT before we get to the recipe... how about some fun facts?

Sloppy Joe's are called a Taven in Iowa, and a Slushburger in the Upper Midwest and North Dakota. Other names include barbecues, Manwich, spoonburgers, steamers, yum yums, and wimpies. If you watched the show Rosanne in the 90's, she was always serving up "loose meat" sandwiches, which same-same.

LENTIL SLOPPY JOES
1 small onion, dice
2 garlic cloves, mince
1 green bell pepper, seed, dice
1/2 cup tomato sauce
2 tbsp ketchup
1 tbsp yellow mustard
1 tbsp Dijon
1 tbsp vegan Worcestershire sauce (optional)
1 can (15-oz) lentils, drain and rinse (or 2 1/4 cups cooked)
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1-2 tbsp brown sugar (optional)
cayenne or hot sauce (optional)
smoked paprika
vegetable broth

Saute onion and garlic in 1/4-cup broth until translucent. Add peppers and continue to cook to desired tenderness (I like them pretty soft). Stir in remaining ingredients. Cover and simmer on very low for 5-30 minutes if you can. These Joes become even more flavorful after "marinating" in the fridge for a few days. Serve on your favorite hamburger bun or sliced bread.

INTRODUCING SLIM TEAM

Very few people who have struggled with dieting can lose weight and SUSTAIN that weight-loss without help and encouragement from another person.

Studies consistently show that having support and accountability dramatically increases your chance of success.

ESPECIALLY when you’re part of a small group focused on the same goal, and working the same, necessary steps together.

The first Slim Team class has been an EPIC testament to that.

They lost a whopping 1,171.6 pounds in the first month! Booyah!

When you’re on a TEAM you’re not just accountable to yourself.

You’re accountable to your teammates too, which means you’ll hold yourself to a higher standard, expect more of yourself, and deliver ;)

You’ll also have your teammates there to help you!!

JOINING THE SLIM TEAM GETS YOU:

• Accountability!!!

THIS IS THE CRITICAL COMPONENT TO WEIGHT-LOSS. Knowing that you have to report your progress every week will motivate you to stick to it.

Your teammates will also be there to give you a helping hand when you need to pull you back up or steady you and a high-five when you have a victory.

Zero judgement. Zero jealousy. The Slim Team realizes when you win, we all win. It’s a team sport and we need each other. It’s just too difficult to succeed in isolation.

• New perspective.

We’re all bad at knowing our own strengths or weakness. Your teammates and coach will see what’s up with fresh eyes, and tell you how to get out of your own way.

The weekly drills and practices will also show you EXACTLY why you’ve been unsuccessful in the past because it isn’t just for a lack of trying...

You were blindfolded. In Slim Team you’ll uncover all the self-sabotage you weren’t aware you were doing and learn how to modify your behavior in ways that self-SUPPORT instead.

Being on a team also allows you to view yourself and your potential in a new way.

Your teammates will help you question limiting presumptions you have about yourself while encouraging you to grow and try new approaches because WE HAVE YOUR BACK.

• Self-confidence

The Slim Team Training Program will show you EXACTLY how to counteract your sense of helplessness and stop your sabotaging thoughts and behaviors dead in their tracks.

You’ll learn the exact strategies Lindsay and other Slimmers have used.

Effective strategies so you FEEL in control.

Whether it’s emotional eating, overeating, stress eating, mindless eating, food addiction, life getting in the way, or some other hurdle, this new program will empower you to behave in helpful ways.

• Workbook + Workshops

An OFFICIAL Slim Team Workbook!

Each week you’ll download an assignment (think of them as mini challenges) or a short lesson. At the end of the week, you’ll discuss it together in group and on a live call where you can ask questions.

You will also have access to top notch research and studies that back up every suggestion for further understand and geeking out, if you want.

Enrollment is limited to first-come, first-served and space is very limited.

“I am actually shocked that I lost weight. I had been plateaued for SO many months that I thought I’d be happy if I even lost a pound! I don’t feel like I’ve done much of anything but I lost 5lbs! Just goes to show that all the little habits do add up. This is definitely mind over matter - I think my eating issues are much more centered around my brain than I thought!” – Shelley H.

“Seriously, I have not been able to stick to anything that resulted in weight loss for years. I have done a lot of hard things in my life, including finishing 6 marathons… the marathons were easier than sticking to a weight loss plan. This is working. I love having friends and a common goal” – Sheree G.

“I used to wonder why I gained weight or couldn’t lose because just looking at mu meals I didn’t really eat that much… if I have learned anything from these couple of weeks it’s not just what we eat but how and why and when. Together we can do this!” - B. Satchfield

“I am amazed at the difference in my attitude. I feel like I have control that I never had before.” – Tammy K.

“I can’t explain it but there has been a shift. I am not stressing about eating or exercising (or NOT exercising). I am not compelled to snack at work anymore (even at stressful times). It feels SOOOO good.” – Karen P.

“This is the first time that significant weight loss is happening in a healthy way for me. I’m currently at my lowest weight as an adult, don’t feel deprived, and am learning so very much.” – Ami S.

“The psychology of what we are learning is fascinating. Our brains just want to sabotage us no matter what! I notice the struggle but at the same time changing the behaviors works.” – Jessical F.
